My horse cracks me up!

Splish Splash, he's takin a bath...

 And he goes bobbing for apples!

 That's an excellent moose impression...

Wooooooweeeeeee that's fun!

Pony Post

I've been trying to get time to post these pics, mostly for my Mom and Linda- I know you two are my most devoted followers and won't see these elsewhere.

Introducing......... Wraylee and Cinders as SHOW GIRLS!



Cinders and I at our first horse show!




YAY! 3rd place in Halter class!





Boody, Jeanne, Wraylee, Carissa, and Zippa

A lovely horse is always an experience.... It is an emotional experience of the kind that is spoiled by words. ~Beryl Markham

Another great horse escape

Jeanne exclaims "They went that-a-way!" while Marc reflects on the rock slide we just came THUNDERING down.

Ok, maybe not thundering. 

Moi on Zippa and Jeanne on Boody 

The appy people, talkin about appy things

Scott on Mouse and Hearty runnin lead

How do you step out of your comfort zone? A photo journey

What she's doing now

Returning to a favorite

Ah, steeds, steeds, what steeds!  Has the whirlwind a home in your manes?  Is there a sensitive ear, alert as a flame, in your every fiber?  Hearing the familiar song from above, all in one accord you strain your bronze chests and, hooves barely touching the ground, turn into straight lines cleaving the air, and all inspired by God it rushes on!  ~Nikolai V. Gogol, Dead Souls, 1842

Magestic Steeds

Meet my Great Grandfather, Earl Carroll. He's on the right....I believe. (Carroll children, correct me if I'm wrong).

I love our family's visual history. This picture came from my Great Aunt Fleeta's collection, the one in the red expandable file folder that my Grandma has stored in the bottom drawer of her curio cabinet.

Dancer

Authors note: ROCK music, it seems! ;)

Ride Em Cowgirl!!!

Reckless Exuberance

A collection of horsey pics for your viewing pleasure!

Maybe you've been wondering...

Where have I gone?!?

Well.......

I've gone Rogue!

I've hooked up with a band of Bandits.

We roam the snowy countryside looking for hay piles and chocolate vampire lips to eat. It's true.

Girly Mane

Which style do you like better?

Three things I enjoy

 

and speaking of Harleys....

Some of those darn crazy horse people!

I LOVE horse time!

A touching moment between trainer, Nate,  and trainee(s), Rohana and Rio.

I've been spending a whole heap of time with fellow horse people, trail riding and watching lessons- taking pictures and taking it all in. I really enjoy this horsey time...wouldn't you?

A few of my very most favorite horse friends and I enjoying an evening trail ride.

Toes Toes Toes

Her name is Cinders, she is a show girl....

Er, no, she is a paint mare!

She's got new toes!!! Don't they look grand! You can't see?

See! Believe me, these toes are a huge improvement over the before...which we have no proof of. SORRY!

New toes make you capable of running fast and leaping tall buildings! You didn't know that either? You don't say!

New toes also make your momma super excited to ride!!!

First ride ~ went pretty well :)

Marley and Skipper

Ah, steeds, steeds, what steeds!

Has the whirlwind a home in your manes?

Is there a sensitive ear, alert as a flame, in your every fiber?

~Nikolai V. Gogol

I've missed blogging! Let's play a game.

ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS....not completely!

Cinders working out in her school clothes.

A customer rode thier horse to my work and "parked" it right outside!

Xander get's a giddyup out of Unkl Jasin.

Cliff carries his dog, DM, on a horse back ride. She was to tired to continue. Sweet, isn't it!

And my horsey love, Skipper.

So tell me, which one is not quite like the others?
