Xiomara and I caught Rex & Gambit in the midst of playing a game with rules that only they knew. Maybe their names should be Wrecks & Grabbit.

I tried to tell y’all 🤷🏻‍♀️

Great breakdown of what I’ve seen, but couldn’t understand! Some modern horses have a funny “dangly” passage. Possibly the exaggerated oscillation of the forelimbs makes it hard to collect these horses with extravagant movement?? Who am I to say, I have yet to get passage of any sort from my own horse (except once, sort of by accident)! Xiomara is pretty good at a fancy Western jog though 😉

This.
This is why a good school horse is worth more than a fancy show horse.
During this young rider’s lesson on a very windy day, the tarp on the roof of one of the sheds started tearing apart and flapping wildly. Alex never even gave it a thought. Huge pieces of the tarp were banging and whipping around. Sections tore off completely and flew across the farm. Alex kept on doing his job, taking care of this little person, paying no mind to the chaos around him. 🤎🤍🩶

Dee understands the rules. No horses stepping on the hose!

Some historical photos!

This was November 1998 just after the farm became mine. There were four stalls in the barn. I brought three horses (Ivy, Gretchen & April), two ducks (Kansas & Green Bean) and one dog (Meatball).

Right now, there are seven stalls in the barn, two shed rows with eight more stalls and two run in sheds. My Dad built the extra stalls and sheds. 19 horses (only four belong to me), 27 chickens and four cats live here now.
