Just Melting Here But Finn is Doing Great!

Finn has been in training since August 3rd. And I am so proud to say he has been hacking to and from the ring under saddle on the buckle with the trainer. Now it has been hot as Hades so maybe he is just hot and doesn't feel like rebelling but still proud of my … Continue reading Just Melting Here But Finn is Doing Great!

Yes We Are Alive!

This has been a very hot summer and not a lot is being done right now. My horse is sweating (YAY) but otherwise it has been horrible. Lindsay rode him for the first time yesterday due to the weather being so crap (And the fact her older horse Toulouse has dumped her a couple times). … Continue reading Yes We Are Alive!

Finn Keeps Getting Out There (AKA DOING STUFF)

So sorry about that. End Trans ( I love Jumping Jack Flash the movie and use END TRANS … Continue reading (Not) Sweating to the Oldies…

Nothing to See Here: Just Hot!

We got horrific storms last week which did a lot of damage at our farm and still did not COOL it down one bit. That is Toulouse's … Continue reading Nothing to See Here: Just Hot!
