Friends, Fall, family ,Fun, and Fotos?Many many photos

I had another post started, but somehow I  did not get it to  make sense yet, give me time, maybe I over thought it , or ... but seeing as it was about , over thinking/over steering etc I may  just need to let it percolate some more .
Meanwhile, thank you all for your wonderful support of my writing , and all the nice comments. I never know what is  going to strike a chord in others when I put it out there, but it good to know I am  not alone in my feelings, and my dear friends,if reading that  caused a bit of  "dust" in your eyes know you are never alone. happens to me all the time .
But on to  the next  post.
I had another visit from Mel this weekend . She  came out on Friday, and helped me to  clean Martin's saddle and a few things  , then Sat we  saddled up Cat and Andee, I rode each and then she took a turn on both





Both are doing well, and very accepting of different riders/handlers . A few fine tuning issues, but they are very green  so that is not surprising , and actually what the other post is about so...
Took a drive out to my sister in laws  place and Mel met them and  Eastern Ruler , their lovely WB stallion who she is going to do a picture of . Then  back for chores and an early night (party animals I know!)
Today we decided to take advantage of the beautiful backdrop nature has  provided and go for a photo walk. I will let the pics speak for themselves










Later , sent Mel off with Deb(Greymare) and her hubby for a boat ride then home  , and I headed up to Mayerthorpe to see Angela's Arse!(LOL Eurus may be all grown up and a dignified handsome Canadian Warm blood, but he will always be Arse in my heart )
Took some still shots and video for her ,






 Back home in time to have dinner at my sisters home with her hubby and all 3 kids home at once! . A great weekend all in all !
Stay safe

  5. Your place is so gorgeous...especially in the fall. That may be the thing I miss the most about living in a desert climate...all of the beautiful fall foliage.

    Arse looks awesome!!

  8. Hi,
    This is the only way I could find to contact you.
    I just saw your piece re: Horricks Dairy from January (?).
    George and Charlie were my great-uncles.
    I'd love a copy of the photo you used in that blog piece.

    My name is Leah J. Utas, Maggie Horricks was my maternal grandmother.
    If you like, please contact me at msquote@hotmail.com
    If you'd like proof of who I say I am, the best proof I can offer is my face. I look just like my mom, who looked just like her mom Maggie.

    Thanks, I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

  10. Wow, Nature up your way is BEAUTIFUL right now! Our leaves are slowly starting to change colors. And if I ever tried to jump a horse like that I'd fall flat on my face.

    I love this place!!! And you too of course..now when will the 2013 calendar go into production?

  12. If you do another calendar for next year, you'll definitely have to include some of those. The composition on many of those photos in the trees is spot on.

  13. Looks wonderful! And isn't it fun to see horses rolling in the dirt. Gets all the itches out.
