Wentworth Hunter Pace - June 6, 2021

After Margaret and I had such a fun time at the fall hunter pace, we opted to go again this spring! This time, while I rode Rejoice again, Margaret rode her horse Jester and had a friend ride Ladyhawke. All Kennebec Morgans!! Jester and Rejoice have the same dam and Jester and Lady share the same sire. Unfortunately instead of a lovely late spring day, we had one of the first intensely hot and humid days of the year. It was definitely a bummer, but the ride was mostly in the shade of the woods and we had a great time!  most of the fences were 3' coops but we found a small log and this hay to jump haha Until we didn't. 😑 We brought along a third friend who rode Margaret's older mare, Ladyhawke.

National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo) - is this still a thing?

A few times in the past, I have participated in NaBloPoMo during the month of November, in an effort to write every day.  I don't use my blog to generate income nor do I honestly have much to offer the world-at-large haha, but I love to write.  I also love to keep tracking of things and being organized, so keeping my equine blog has been a great way to chronicle and remember things.

I don't really know if NaBloPoMo is still a thing, as when I was googling for prompts a few weeks ago (and again just now to be sure), nothing comes up for 2017.  So, if anyone would like to join me, feel free to take these prompts, join the blog hop, and write every day in November! 

Happy writing!
