Crash, bang, boom!

Well, all I can say is I wish I had video of this...Over the past few weeks, the place where I board has been doing quite a bit of construction, and we're all excited to watch things unfold as the old is removed and the new is built!  A super shout out to the owners Angele and Andy Mlsna, they're amazing!

Guinness and the scary tree!

Just a quick, funny entry.  This weekend, I was riding Guinness with a barn buddy, and we since it was such a nice day out we decided to ride in the outdoor.  our outdoor also has some grassy and rteed areas to ride in as well.

We decided after working in the ring to take a little "trail ride" to help Guinness get his trail feet ready for next year.  My barn buddy has a wonderful steady-Eddy who helps Guinness stay "on board" with what we're doing:)

This summer, I moved my pal Elvis from his current abode to some new digs!  We had been open to and on the lookout for his "real name", since I had waffled back and forth with the name Elvis.

We're "all put together"!

Ah yes, another milestone for Elvis and I today!  We had a lesson with Ruth Hansen, who showed us some wonderful subtleties and simple things to do that make such big changes!  During our lesson, it was the perfect time to take the reins from being attached to the halter, to attaching them to the bit, and so we did!
