Response to rideendurance's request for memories :o)
This is definitely one of my favourite horse experiences, but it is a bit of a long story! In 1996, my neighbour, who loves geriatric horses, asked me if I would keep a horse at my farm for the winter. This horse was being retired, and my neighbour wanted to “adopt” her, but she had to wait until spring to build a paddock for her. The horse’s name was Cricket, and she was a Canadian – a versatile hardy breed. Cricket was 29 at the time and was a renowned jumper in the area, even having a trainin… Continue

Thanks Jessie and Becky!! I'm hoping that my life will get back to normal very soon, soo I can play with him more, without hurting soo bad! There's nothing I want more than to jump in that saddle!!
Thanks for sharing! Your little Butterscotch is so darling. I like his little wild "winter do". WAYYYYY TOOO CUTE!
What a fun time that was. Boy that little Major is quite the jumper! Both of the boys had a fun time and were quite excited about getting the tree. LOL
This was so cute of your new boy Butterscotch and his barn buddies. Can't wait to see him getting trained for driving. Did you forget about making that video on harnessing a mini to the cart? I would love to see you make one. :)
Thanks Jesse, it was a fun day even when I slipped and fell in the mud..LOL
Major was feeling really spunky. He has not had all the experiences Manny has had.
He is pretty! I like his blaze and perfectly matched hind socks.

In your post response about favorite memories, you mentioned about selling stained glass. Do you have any pictures of your work? I am very interested to see them.
Great video and very good tips for those who have not "horse camped" before. In my earlier horse experience I camped and rode with friends a lot. Later I was very fortunate and discovered Endurance and Competitive riding. As Competitive Riding is a much slower paced event I learned to ride distance safely. I became MUCH more aware of my horses physical development and his health care from the information I devoured about training and riding long distances. To my chagrin, as I happened to be looking through some old photographs from our early camping years , I was able to see the tell tale signs of dehydration on my trail partner. Even in our racing years he had never been a good drinker. He had great heart but did not take very good care of himself at water and rest stops. I hadn't known about electrolytes and probiotics and ways that I could help him then. I was not guilty of neglect, but I was guilty of not being informed enough to ride as hard or as long as I had at the time. I hope your videos will help people prepare for a fun experience instead of a trip to the vets. Sharing knowledge is the best part of becoming a true horseman. Thanks!
I am so glad you joined us! Everyone is so friendly and complimentary to one another which makes this a fun place to be.
Your videos are very professional and enjoyable to watch. Please feel free to add your blog, joing groups, forums or start your own. :)
Wow what cool video and pictures! I love your little chickadee picture. Can you tell me what kind of competition it is in the photos? It is so fascinating meeting people here on the website who are kindred spirits from all over the world. I hope to hear more about your training ideas and see more of your beautiful pictures.
Thank you for joining and welcome. I love your videos and the pictures you added and will enjoy hearing more about your clinics. I especially love the pictures with the fall colors as the background. :)
