Why Horses Wednesday: Gilt Gams

Jane overhears a rail conversation that gives her yet one more reason to answer the question: Why Horses?

Lock N Load

It’s true. Jane has been on horses that know how to jump, but never on a horse that has been bred and trained and had a complete career in jumping. Completely different animal. It’s rack it, aim, and shoot!

FTF: You Dirty Rat

Jane’s first Friday the 13th. Oh yeah, she’s been through lots. But nothing has ever happened before.

All Saints Day

We’ve interrupted our regular programming with life: Dad’s memorial service was Sunday. Please excuse any lapses in good blog judgement. We hope to return to our regular programming shortly.

With Thanks…

Next up for Carnival of the Horses: November 1, 2009: White Horse Pilgrim.
Thank you to all who participated, generously shared your knowledge or perspectives, and made this a personally memorable experience for me.

Carnival of the Horses

Turnstiles open. Free admission! The Carnival is here! Enjoy the rides, er, reads: hang on, it’s going to be fun!

Creative Dismount: Cara’s Story

Creative Dismount: Cara relates how she fell off a horse…while it was sleeping. Those of us who have fallen off of an awake, but not moving horse, are SO glad you wrote in. Thank you! (Although I believe we all know it could have been us as well…can so picture myself doing exactly that.)

FTF: A Tail of Two Horses

FTF: The old bait and switch…

Happy Birthday Floyd!

Happy 78th Birthday Floyd! Start singing, guys! Whose got the cake? It’s an old fashioned birthday party in the mountains…(don’t tell Blaze, but we got carrot cake just for him.)

Horses with lower IQ’s. Or learning disabilities. How do you handle it? What’s your experience?
