Summer around the corner

Well, the spring has been very wet and depressing to say the least. Amanda is adding on to her barn, another 10 stalls. And field are being fenced in. She is going to be a busy lady this summer. I have to get some recent pictures up here, there are new horses at the farm and grass is growing in.

I hoping to be able to get my daughter up on Bass this summer, so she can ride. He seems to get better the more I ride. I just have to work on his stop. Which I am researching many different ways to get him to listen. On the ground he's awesome at stop, it seem that once I'm in the saddle everything goes out the window, so we'll work on it.

GreeneAcres

His new home. Greene Acres Equestrian Center. He is soo happy. I will get some pictures of the whole place. My mom and Barbara came up with their dogs, Molly and Meredith, (Molly is deaf and only has one eye, she loves Bass, Meredith, I don't know if she's to sure yet.) (I'll put pictures up of them also.)

So, they came up over the weekend and we walked with Bass over the little bridge to the field. He was so good. I thought for sure he would give me a hard time. I watched him though, as soon as I saw him getting a little nervous I would turn him back toward the barn and let him eat grass. I only had to do that twice and when he was calm he just walked right over.

oh! He is also starting to gain weight. His winter coat is shedding out revealing his shiny summer coat.

All this Natural Horsemanship stuff I've been trying to learn has really helped me. I have made some new friends. Also with working at Dion Tack on the weekends, It has opened up the whole horsey world again. : )
