I updated Buena and KT’s West Nile virus vaccinations just last week. If you haven’t done so, please do! Make sure your horse(s) is(are) current!

Well, maybe not a whole day, but the whole family rode in some fashion. I hauled Buena and KT (in our shiny new trailer) to the SAFE Benefit Horse Show at Frontier Park in Graham on Saturday. It was a gorgeous day and lots of good friends were in attendance. Special thanks to my good friend Chelsea of Pony Up Rescue for Equines, who offered up her 37-year-old feedlot-rescued horse Sarge for the Little Cowboy to ride in leadline classes. My son did not want to get off after he finished Leadline Trail. Paddock Boy donned his new boots and hopped on Buena for the Other Half Leadline class, after doing a 27 mile marathon training run from the house to the show grounds that morning.
I wish that I could say I brought home lots of ribbons, but that was not the case. Only got one 4th place white ribbon in Western Pleasure Rescue Horse. Paddock Boy got a blue and Little Cowboy got TWO blue ribbons! We had fun, though, and the entry fees when to the great cause of supporting SAFE’s many rescue endeavors.
After a short week of hanging out separated, I decided it was time to turn Buena out with KT, seeing as we have a short trailer ride to our trimming appointment tomorrow. It was practically uneventful! Just the way I like it.
Now...introducing my friend’s Araloosa mare...that will be a different story. But for tomorrow, I’ll sandwich Buena between them and all will be good.
I actually rode 2 days in a row last week. Thursday, I saddled Buena in the round pen and rode a bunch in there and then around the property.
Friday, I hooked up with a couple of friends and rode up on Mt. Baldy, just outside of town. It was a perfect day and with perfect company.
The POA in the pics is Gossip Girl and she is available for adoption from Pony Up for Equines.
Horse time has been very limited lately. We have been working on a pretty major project, which you can read more about here. I was able to get a few new pictures snapped of Buena the other day and I really hope to be getting back in the saddle again here real soon. It’s going to take a bunch of puzzle pieces falling into the right places to have it happen, but I am optimistic. Especially if I happen to win the lottery! In the meantime, here is your Buena fix:
