Hi guys!

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a long time! I just don't know what to post. But, I finally found something. The other night, I got on Storm and rode him in the dark. We were in my round pen, and it was growing really dark. We did quite a bit of trotting after I got him settled down, and sometimes I felt like I was going to fall off because his trot is so… fast lol. Anyways, it was s lot of fun! But I need you guys to comment so i can get some ideas about what to post about. Thanks! :)

2 more gone

This is going to be a short and slightly depressing post.
So Reba ended up being donated to the university vet program. The sweet pony who trusted me before she trusted her owners, is gone forever.
 And another horse I used to work with got out of his pasture, and was hit by a car. So I'm starting to come to the conclusion that I can never love a horse without something happening to it before it's time.
Reba and maverick, I will always remember you both.

Rosie ∞ Jumping Queen

Sooo I've said some things about Rosie in the past, but now it's time for her big piece or whatever.

So about two weeks ago now, the week before the week of Labor Day weekend, Rosie's owner, my best friend/cousin stayed for a week, and, boy, did Rosie get her butt kicked into shape. Thank god it hadn't been that long since Rosie's owner - she has Rose in her name, so we'll call her that - was last here, so Rosie was still in good shape, so, on Rose's orders, we took Rosie over jumps that were a little bit higher than what sh'ed jumped the last time after a few days of easy jumps. First we bumped the biggest jump she'd done before by three inches - than, after a day or two of flying over that, we raised them another three. After measuring the highest jump, we are proud to say Rosie's jumped (on the lunge line) about three feet.
