We were out in the woods today clearing and marking trails in Fin de Ville's Fairy Forest. It was a pretty big job but most of the trails are accessible again.

Two more Fin de Ville Team members at Westar. Charity had one of her best shows this season with Blue. And Jessica added to her huge ribbon collection with a champion in her first silver show with Lestat. Well done girls.

Thank you so much for the very professional job done by Gillespie Handyman Services Inc. to finish two projects that we started in our own and just couldn't find the time to finish. The new outside walls of the arena and the tops and flashing on the bale shed look fantastic. These guys know how to get the job done.

Introducing Vincent. This lovely boy is only 2 but he is very tall. He has come to Fin de Ville for an introduction to all the things he will need to know once he is ready to be started under saddle. That won't happen for quite a while yet, but when it does, he will have good manners. Welcome Winston.

August has been a really crazy month here at Fin de Ville as we try to get hay in and finish some major projects. That is my excuse for not posting welcome photos of this little cutie sooner. Meet Roxy. She is here to be started under saddle. She has been here for a month and has already learned so much. Welcome Roxy.

Robyn and Otto (somebody get me a picture) silver first level champs, Charity and Blue 2 pink ribbons and one white, and Jessica and Lestat, champion and ESD high point of the show. Well done riders and horses. Congratulations to owners Martin and Debbie and Cathleen and Derrick.

And the Fin de Ville Horse shower rises again for another summer. A fun way for horses and riders to cool off after a ride.

July 31 (today) was Baby Dream's graduation day. The mare has just turned 5 and she has learned so much. She moves from a stretchy trot to a solid dressage frame without changing her rhythm. She does all of the 2nd level dressage moves and she jumps. Well done Dreamy girl. Here is her graduation video https://youtu.be/2AqPEucAQqU

Fin de Ville's Miss Tique (Tiqa) turns one tomorrow. She had a fantastic birthday party today. Most of her barn friends came to help her celebrate. What a good baby horse.

Lestat, the handsome young fella with the snazzy necktie, has completed his training at Fin de Ville. Robyn was tasked with producing a safe, sane and reliable mount that would be fun for an amateur rider. Well, this lovely Gypsy Cob is just that. Good Boy Lestat. Here is his graduation video
