Over the weekend we did Weanling Walk 2: The Reckoning. Weanling Walk 1 is here. Weanling Walk 2 ended up being much better! Who would have thought a sequel would have been better than the original?! This time, I stuck a camera similar to a GoPro on my head and recorded the whole thing. The shortened version clocks i[...]
Edit: I DO NOT WORK FOR SADDLEBOX!!! If you comment here saying you want to cancel, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN! BECAUSE I DO NOT WORK FOR THEM. I HAVE NO CONTACT WITH THEM. I have no idea why this keeps happening, but if you need to contact the company, please contact THEM. Not a random blogger with no connection to them. The weat[...]
We planned this weekend to get the babies trailer loading. That didn't go to plan. But, one thing I'd learned with horses is doing some ambitious plan will force me what we need to work on. In this case, we were walking them up to the trailer, through the big field that the horses are normally turned out in, and there was just to[...]
This long weekend was a fun weekend of visitors! And I popped up on Eventing Nation! I have officially peaked, it's time to retire. Shelby came back up, and naturally, she had to see the little babies. I think she was a hit with them. Stubert and Shelby doing the official muzzle bump greeting. They are now friends forever. A post[...]
With the deep freeze coming through last week, it has been rough on the farm. The pipes froze in the barn which meant that Dave and I were hauling buckets of water down from the house. Not fun at all, and I feel especially bad for Dave as he was alone last week, hauling buckets of water for five horses. Poor guy. I was in Florida. I didn'[...]
When Stu was born, he had a teeny little hernia. It was so small that I didn't even notice it until the vet pointed it out during the vet check. I've never had a horse with a hernia before, having never owned a horse so young. It isn't uncommon in babies - It's basically a spot in the abdominal wall where it didn't close all[...]
Despite all my efforts to discover time travel, the years continue to go by faster and faster. Tomorrow, I'm going to wake up 80 years old. To maximize the moments I have left, I am actually going to set some goals this year. I don't think I set any last year, and then I ended up buying a baby horse. It's funny how these things work out![...]
It's the time of year for everyone to make recaps, so this is as close as I'm getting! I'm still terrible at creating videos, but hopefully, I will get better. Here is Stu's life, up until now: https://youtu.be/QOK_63a5zxQ The more I get to know him, the more I love him. The highlight of his day is visits with people, and h[...]
Well, I did it. Something I would have only thought teenagers capable of pulling off. Something that in my day, only rebellious teenagers did. I dyed my hair pink. Although I went the grown-up adult way of doing it, and went to a salon and paid an absurd amount of money for someone else to pink my hair. NO REGRETS! When we la[...]
Stu has now been on my farm for a week and a half. He was a bit shy when he first arrived, but he's really come out of his shell now. He was shy, but curious before, and now he's not as shy, but still very curious. He loves to start mischief, and one of his first orders of business was to get into the halter storage and drag the halters o[...]
