Chick is just a natural. Her brother could ride just as well as her if he had half a mind to do so. She also has guts and determination.

I will enjoy myself in the shade of trees if I can get away with it.

well at least you have a plan. My plan is to closely study the inside of my eyelids since it is nearly midnight.

I am off camping with the family tomorrow for a couple of days at the beach. Fishing and catching crabs. Getting more skin cancers.

You can only ask. Do you have any other horse you could take then bring your knowledge back to the young fella?

Yes, if too pricey for you you could maybe organise for them to travel for the day and book other people to have lessons that day. Could be cheaper that way.

Of course they can.

I only know how to find these things by rummaging for chick. It is hard to find a good instructor for her unless I travel 3 hours and pay lots of money.

I found you a list of qualified instructors.

I do like to help out.

It sometimes takes a while for things to sink into our overcrowded brains. Finding a good coach can be very hard. Sometimes we have to work with what is available to us and step up from there.

Our area will green up fast once we get rain. The smoke will actually have caused many plants to release seed and will cause more to grow. A lot of our plants need a hot fire before their seed becomes viable.

I am concerned for our wildlife. I will try to see if I can find any that we can help and will try to set out some food for some of them. I fear that many of our critters will have been lost and will now only provide easy hunting for things like feral cats which I really really hate.

I was lucky enough to see one of our native dogs the other day. The dingo ran through our place but stopped at the electric fence as he got zapped. His fear of me was more than of the fence though and he went through.

Now we are entering what should be our wet season we will probably end up with some flooding when it does rain. It will take a bit to flood though as all the dams and natural watercourses are bone dry or close to.

I am not seeing any bad comments so far. I do see someone admitting they may need help. Which post should I be looking at?

Hmm, I better go look. I didn't know you were baaaadddd.

ones of him being a horse. With his mane on the same side you take pics from.
