Deep cold sunny in the paddock windy


Great day in the paddocks 
Spent Time doin our exercises on both days the sun was out keepin us warm I was thinking I woukd take bus blanket off and brush him out too
The view from Beaus paddock is so beautiful
You can see across a wild meadow deep into a forest and a steep hill
I dream of goin thete with him someday soon. The sunlight is filtered through the deep tree s onto the pine needle earth so beautiful







Spending time in his paddock really helps me understand how he spends his time outside.
I moved some ricks we did our backwards walk, turned a few times
On Saturday the new leaser John,  of Kinsey was there. I introduced my self he looks about 65 70 maybe. He had beautiful expensive tall black shiney  boots He said he hadn’t ridden in 3 years.

cold, windy snowy and barn chore weekend

 Saturday afternoon, cute new horse Ruby, she was so adorable when I was talking to her, I talked for a while and she started to do this sweet thing that Duke used to do, where he would move his mouth back to me as I was talking to him. 
















Anyway got my boy in the snow and brought him in for sthe night. we got to do some exerciess in the arena and walked around. 

Sunday

Did some chorses, clieaned the english saddle andn brought it back. moved my stuff to Kaylas spot to get some extra room. then realized the Kayla and Kristie really take up too much space. I got the new chest move, patty helped.

Seinna was a bit better this weekend but shes really not that good when I went out to visit her she had her hoof rasied, like maybe painnful. Patty was worried that shoeuld woulddnt come in but as soon as I get beau moving she comes in.

Sunday I walked Beau all over the farm but when we walked near Joleit he getsw way too excitiable.

There was a woman in the arena working out iwth Kensi so I walked the farm instead, Beau is just ok but was good tokday. He looks around, yo would never know how much magnesium I am giving him.


I stayed for 2 hours been working in my gear. Piled my English saddle trying to get the gear organize

Moved my chest to Kayla’s old spot put my stuff on a nail I put onto the wall thete both Kayla and Kristie have 2 times the area of other people. Not fair really but both feel the are entitled to more than everyone else so sad

Kaylee moving to a less expensive barn because she is growing up and needs to pay for her own stuff instead of her parents I guess

New horse came in really cute red mare named Ruby she is in the other side of Beau. I was able to ouch up Beaus feet but he was a bit charge when we got to his stall





Brought apples for Beau Muke and Dusty






I was disappointed to see his over the top moves to get in the stall. I wanted to cross rue him but he was not good handling on Sunday

Quiet weekend Siennas limping

 Saturday Sienna was pretty resistant to any movement not wanting to go in her stall but too sore to do anything too much more. Here Patti is talking to her to get her to go into the stall. She wanted to be outside but her front hoof is too sore. Jack was coming everyday they are waiting on an abcess but I am not so sure that its just an abcess. Well actually on Friday Jack said there is a bruise too.

Beau was out when I got there in the afternoon. around 2 230. He was happy but I knew that if Beau came in that Sienna would feel more comfortable

I took him into the arena, hes lost alot of the ground work that we had done so well last year. hes treat spolt so I need to shift because hes too motivated by a snack. and he wants to play so much. Hes stopping on cue ok hes listening ok. A few weeks ago he broke off the lead that I was lunging him. REally was a bit disapointed.

Goal to walk in the woods is not going so well. I may just have to do it, walk the road. Hes pushy and he bolts off my lines. 



Had gone to NEER North to donate a saddle and tack.
