On the 1st day of Christmas, my true love sent to me: A buckskin in a semi-clean stall! On the 2nd day of Christmas, my true love sent to me: Two bellboots needing mending, and a buckskin in a semi-clean stall. On the 3rd day of Christmas, my true love sent to me: Three buckets … Continue reading The Twelve Days of Christmas, Remus Rendition!

It is not even that cold here. We have had a pretty mild Fall into Winter. But I am in the winter dumps. Work sucks. And I have had a few minor health issues going on while not earth shattering, still are enough of a pain to make me feel like crap most days.  I … Continue reading Winter Doldrums

Monday was a busy day in Remusland. He hitched a ride with Sterling to go to Unionville Equine to get his shots and his coggins updated (Sterling had gone to get some melanomas taken care of so I think Remus had the better visit)! That place is gorgeous. Like I would live in the treatment … Continue reading A Shave & A Haircut, Vaccines Too

We went and took a lesson with Sally at Kealani Farms in West Grove on Saturday. First off that farm is magnificant. I wanted to stay there! It was that nice. The arena was lovely, the footing was wonderful. Definitely a nice place to take a lesson! And as we unloaded there were some NICE … Continue reading Jump Lesson With Sally at Kealani Farms

Yes I said I was done blogging every day but come on! Habits are hard to break!  I had started this one this week and hadn't managed to combine it on any of the other posts. So here we go! (I am taking the weekend off from blogging though!) 🙂 George the Girth After looking … Continue reading George the Girth (Just Need the Correct Size)!

Wow, last day of NaBloPoMo 2017. Thanks Clover Ledge Farm for pushing me to do it. It was tough writing every day but with the help of the topics it was easier than I thought it would be. Am I going to still write every day? PROBABLY NOT, girlfriend needs a rest. But I am … Continue reading Day 30–Your Future With Horses

I am not trendy. By a longshot. As any of you that have met me or follow me online can see! I don't follow trends and I mostly just buy stuff Amanda tells me to buy. Because I am a puppet. But beside that I just don't care that much. I want comfy clothes, non-tacky … Continue reading Day 29–A Style/Trend in Tack/Riding Apparel That You Don’t Like (Or Not)

Helmet or no Helmet? Helmet of course. As a kid I never rode in one unless in a lesson. I never had a fall when I needed one (except for my Pasha rearing incident and of course I was in a saddle seat then so the bowler hat was NO help at all), but as … Continue reading Day 28–Helmet or No Helmet?

You know you are an equestrian when (list five original ones): Your truck often holds in no particular order: A saddle, two or three saddle pads, spurs, a bridle, helmet, gloves and carrots. Things it never holds: Makeup (except for chapstick), heels, or jewelry! 🙂 You hang all your event ribbons up very carefully but … Continue reading Day 27–You Know You’re an Equestrian When…..(Plus Paper Chase Update)

I don't have a lot of these. Really I don't. Don't cut people off in classes or in lessons. It is rude and shows poor sportsmanship. Even kids learning to ride should have this drilled into them as it is also dangerous at times. Don't run by horses on trails (I am off to a … Continue reading Day 26–Biggest Riding Pet Peeve
