Winter Blues

As you can tell I'm not really good at updating this. I will try more.  Mr. Bass is a fuzz ball right now and very itchy.  I know his blanket makes him itchy but with the temperatures being as low as they were a few weeks ago he needed it. Now that the days are in the 40's he doesn't wear it, but he's still itchy.  I will get some more pictures and post them soon. 

I am a member on a horse forum, and while reading some posts about some members riding lessons, it made me reminisce about mine.  I started actual lessons when I was 8 years old.  I have ridden so many different breeds, and horses with unique personalities.  My favorite was a thoroughbred named Oberon.   I heard many of the other students complain about how lazy he was for them.  When I got on him though, he felt like a different horse.  His feet didn't click the cavalettis, he listened and actually seemed pleased to see me when I went to get him ready for my lesson.  There was a pony name Moon, she loved to jump.  If there were jumps in the middle of the ring you had to keep extra outside rein on her, or she'd veer to the inside and go straight for them. She was funny!

When I have some more time I'll add some longer stories about my lessons.

Have a great Friday!

Happy Birthday Mr Bass!

I know that horses technically celebrate their birthday in the beginning of the year, but why rush it?  He's 28 !  I got him when I was 14!! I thought I was 16, but I found his pre-purchase exam. Anyway, he's been my best friend, his mane has caught many tears, his ears have heard many whispered words.  I tell everyone he's my therapist..  There's nothing a good day at the barn won't cure!  Its late right now but I wanted to post before I fell asleep. I will post more tomorrow.  

More Updates!

Amy Rubin came out and did Mr Bass' teeth.  he still is not chewing right but she did file down a step in his teeth. She wants to see him again in 6 months.  So hopefully it will help him some what. 
Here is a video. Video of Mr Bass

Updates!

I just love that Morgan face of his!  I know it's been a while since I updated. Just have been very busy with some life things.  Mr Bass is doing great!  He has been having some problems with eating lately, but the barn owner where he is has been doing a lot for him with beet pulp and hay stretcher so he's doing good.  I will take some pictures and I do have a video to upload, so soon enough I will get this updated a bit.
