Ok, so it has been way too long. But summer is a very busy time of year for me and the Ranch. Shows are in full swing and I just got finished judging five week-ends in a row! I get a short break this week-end from judging and I am looking forward to it. I love to judge, but like all things, it is good to take a break from it for a bit and come back fresh and with new ideas. We just had a play day at Becky's with Rozzi and Codi. They had their first trailer ride together, and they were the perfect gentlemen. They behaved so well at Becky's and Codi was a superstar on the trails. Now I feel better bringing them up to Swanzey to show for a whole week-end. Rozzi won us two belt buckles at Region 6, so I am still on cloud nine from that whole experience. Rozzi was so comfortable in the coliseum that he rolled after his work out, and so he got another bath that night. He was sassy the morning of our classes, but he behaved during our classes which made me very happy. Poppi is teaching five children how to ride this summer, and he is loving it. His health is still on a steady incline and you would never know he was so sick this past October. Pictures will be posted on our gallery page soon with all of his students. Fanci is back in shape and ready for the show ring, so she may be shown once this fall. There is a possibility we may be breeding her in spring 2011, but those plans are still in the works. We will soon be adding onto our current barn and we are also renovating our ring to include solid walls so the horses can concentrate on training more easily. We plan to move the round pen out of the ring so we have more ring room, and we also hope to start clearing land so we can extend our pastures, Lots of dreams and goals, but we are working toward them full speed ahead.
