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. She's a good rider but hasn't known Ladyhawke for very long and didn't realize how much of a cranky boss mare she could be at times. She kicked Jester right in the front leg just about halfway through the ride, and while the cut itself ended up not being a big deal in the

Yeah, I am still here....

So it has been a while since I have blogged! LOL! Sorry all. Life has been chaotic, especially back during late July/August. I had a lot of things going on in my personal life and I just honestly did not feel like blogging. I was unhappy about things that were not specifically related to my horses, but it did impact my outlook on life and horses and such. :(

But, I do have LOTS OF NEWS! So I am going to try to get back into the habit of posting. :)

  5. Hi!
    I just stumbled upon your blog, and I have to say, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! I live in the Pacific Northwest, and show a Pinto who is mostly QH, with a little Standardbred, named Tucker. People out here constantly confuse Standardbreds with Saddlebreds, so I set them straight by calling them "trotters". Anyway, he has three solid gates, and we have shown in dressage for four years now, with mixed success. We will show 1st level in the spring. We cliniced with Sandy Chohany a few years ago, and she really liked Tucker. I so jealous that you were able to show for her - she is one of the best. He is also a very good jumper, and a part time therapy horse for people with disabilities. I think it is the Standardbred in him that makes him interesting, and much more versatile. I had to blog to give you any encouragement I can! You go girl!!!
