My goal this winter is to upgrade my riding apparel. That means... boots that FIT... WELL!! New full seat breeches... the pair I...

Ride!! I want to ride Buddy sooooo bad! But he's not in work until we can figure out what is going on with his leg
I just have this incredible itching to ride and to JUMP!! The last time I jumped (aside from at the cav competition) we did a 3'3" course that just felt AMAZING! This horse can jump, the 3'3", it felt like nothing, and that's training level! It made me feel so proud!
But now I can't jump.... Pie doesn't jump anymore, and even if he did, at the moment he's...

My first thought, was... No way!! That horse is perfect for her!! *exasperated sigh*
Kinda backstory here... the owner, Jerri, bought the mare green broke from my then trainer when she was 5 1/2 years old. She had just had to retire her last horse due to a stifle problem and had been looking at a bunch of greenie WBs so my trainer stuck her on Priscilla...

this is part 2... what can I say, I am long winded lol
Oh yes, and then I wanted to say a bit more about Randy. What a neat guy! Oh he's awesome! He's one of those "been there done that" persons. He and his ranch have been on TV several times. He was one who went to Australia last year. He's an expert mounted shooter and he's also a licensed pyrotechnic (meaning he can make things explode and blow up and all that fun stuff!). He has a group of riders who travel around to Rodeos...
