Squelch

It was a rather squelchy hack today. The ground is saturated after rain / snow / more rain. Still a few bits of snow on the ground and lots of standing water. So of course we used it as a bit of event training.

Buddy was happy to be out again too. He stomped through the mud, crunched through the snow and splashed through the water.

Fingers crossed we get to put it to the test this year.

Just what I needed too to blow away some cobwebs.

My Valentine’s

I don’t need a rose.
I don’t need a card.
I have this gorgeous boy,
Waiting at the yard.

He makes me smile each day.
He makes my dreams come true.
And while he’s in my life,
I know I’ll never be blue.

Buddy sends kisses to anyone who needs them today. Happy Valentine’s Day.

Double trouble

Today I decided to long rein Buddy. He was a tad confused to start off with and just stood there. I know it’s been a few years since we last did it, but I wasn’t expecting him to just plant.

Eventually got him moving and ended up lunging him off both lines. He was an absolute star.

It’s good to switch things up. So grateful for our indoor arena right now I can tell you. The snow is beautiful. I’d like it to go now though…
