Trail Clearing


                                                                                                 
We had snow, freezing rain, and wind
a couple of weeks ago. Cowboy T and I
decided to saddle up the horses  last
weekend and go check out the trails...
Of course he had already been out
and said that they were a mess...
Did I believe him... 
Doesn't a cowboy always tell the truth??

YUP...

This is what awaited us....
I was not to happy to see this...
Our beautiful trails...
We already had a plan in motion
before we even got out there..



We are really fortunate that we
have miles and miles of beautiful
trails to ride  right at our doorstep...


We tied the horses up.
Ivy stands just like the perfect little lady...
You can see Cowboy T 's saw
leaning against the tree...


King of course gets bored..
You can see where he has been pawing...






We would clear a good sized
section of the trail and then move
the horses up...
Cowboy T did the bigger stuff..
I picked up the smaller...




Can anyone tell what
kind of  animal print this is...



Had a couple of video's of Cowboy T
working but could not get them uploaded. 
Have tried for two days...
Maybe later I will take new ones 
when we set up camp!!!

Mini Pony Cousins Weekend...




I had a very special weekend
with my Cousin E....
I was treated like royalty...
Spaghetti feed...
A couple sips of cowgirl courage...
Watching Old Yeller...
Watching Clint...
Omelets with homemade applesauce...
But most of all my beautiful cousin..
Thank you for the very special
weekend that I got to have you all
to myself and not share you with
any of those other bandits that we call

"OUR PONY COUSINS"

I love you.....

Cousin J

Things I am loving right now.....



Love the simplicity....

                                                                                                       

 Couldn't you just imagine
having a dinner party with
all your friends  at the barn...
                        


Anything shabby, chippy, rustic...


Curling up with a good book,
having a breeze come threw
the door and smelling the lilacs... 


Making a drastic change....


A warm sweater for the
winter months ahead..
                                          



And maybe if I am a good girl....
Santa will bring me these....

In Loving Memory

"FF  SENSATIONAL ALBERT "
You will always be in our hearts.


My journey with horses began with Albert.
I called him my 
"PRINCE ALBERT"
He was a gentle soul...
He had a kind heart...
He was very forgiving...


I will always treasure every 
moment that I got to spend with you..









It was an honor 
and
a privilege  to ride you...

So my little funny face boy...
I am dreaming of you loping
through the fields and wide open spaces...

It is your turn to dance....

for all of us who loved you so much...











"
A LOVELY HORSE IS ALWAYS AN EXPERIENCE. IT IS AN EMOTIONAL EXPERIENCE OF THE KIND THAT IS SPOILED BY WORDS."




"HORSES CAN'T TALK, BUT THEY CAN SPEAK IF YOU LISTEN."

SWEET DREAMS MY "PRINCE ALBERT"
