Do I have to ride? Nope. Do I like to ride? Yep. But is it that important? I am not sure. I mean yes I love having Remus and taking lessons and would love to have him at home one day...BUT I think the most important thing of riding to me is not the actual … Continue reading Day 22–The Importance of Riding in Your Life

I really don't have "perfect schooling outfits". If it has any purple on it I will buy it but otherwise brands or styles don't bug me too much. I have a bunch of different breeches but my favorite right now are a pair of Tuff Rider full seats that are corded, they are warm without being … Continue reading Day 21–Your Perfect Schooling Outfit

My favorite shows ever were the Morgan Breed shows we went to when we were kids. It was usually about 10-15 of us with parents, siblings and so on. We went for 3-5 days depending on where the show was, we (as poor riding people) stayed in a stall (four or five kids on straw … Continue reading Day 20–Your Favorite Horse Show(s)

One of these I have done before, the others I haven't! I drove Standardbreds and Morgans both as a kid (not professionally LOL but for fun for the Morgans and for summer job in college for the Standardbreds) and enjoyed it. Would like to do it again some day. I enjoyed sitting in the carriage … Continue reading Day 19–A Discipline (Or a Few) You Would Like To Do

  This one made me giggle. Hard. Because grooming is so not my forte. More's the pity right? I do have some better brushes now thanks to Teddy's Tack Trunk(love the hedgehog mane and tail brush the most but they are all gorgeous brushes). But Remus' grooming routine is hit or miss. Right now, his … Continue reading Day 18–Your Grooming Routine (Ha!)

I don't follow trends. I am not one of those people who watch in depth online on the various equine events taking place around the world. I know popular riders names but don't follow them well enough to make them an idol in my mind (I typed idiot first and went no that is not … Continue reading Day 17–Your Equestrian Idol(s)

A Horse Under the Christmas Tree (Well Not Really Under It) Best equine memory, hands down, was when I was given Pasha for a Christmas gift. As I told in an earlier blog post, my parents bought me a Morgan yearling for my first horse. Not the smartest idea but one of the nicest presents … Continue reading Day 16–Your Favorite Equine Memory (or Two)!

Henry I would love to have a chat with him and see how he really feels about the shit Amanda puts him through. Like how does he really feel about dressage and what does he really think about those BATs (Big Ass Tables)? As we know, the jumps don't bother him in the least so … Continue reading Day 15–If You Could Speak to Any Horse, What Would You Say?

Sigh. This topic makes me sad. As most of you know we have been looking for a place to move since March of last Spring. And we found one. A couple times. And still don't have it. Because. The owner is crazy. BUT anyway when I saw this topic I was like there is no … Continue reading Day 14–My Dream Farm (or Nightmare Farm)…

I don't have any new videos of Remus and me (must remedy that!) so I will just post a couple older videos below to make this blog done for the day. They are worth a laugh anyway. This one bears re-watching only as the laziest Quarter Horse in the world, trots through the water then … Continue reading Day 13–A Video of You and Your Horse
