The good news is it is better today. The bad news is I ended up … Continue reading I Did A Bad, Bad Thing (Foot Issues Again)

Guys, it has been a long week, how can it only be Thursday? Am I right?

My friend Kate from the barn talked me into trying a paper chase this weekend. (Okay she twisted my arm).

I haven't had a lesson since early August with Emily so it was past time. Life and other issues got in the way. Per normal. And it turned to be one of the hotter days in September (But the next day was in the 90's so I did luck out a bit). Remus is getting … Continue reading Dressage Lesson With Emily at Fox Mill, Finally!
