Squeaky clean Sully! Stands so nice and quiet to get hosed off for me as I’m by myself. It’s a cool 86 degrees inside the barn so far, so a cold shower after being worked feels good after an each workout today.

Nothing like a nice cool shower, after a good workout, on a warm day. Horses are squeaky clean!!

Alright, here we go Western Washington peeps! Stay hydrated and keep those animals cool and hydrated as well. Please remember to bring a water bottle or something to keep you hydrated when you come to ride. Summer weather is here! ☀️☀️☀️

Boy if this ain’t the truth….

Bob Baffert said, “Great horses change you.”
He’s right.
They destroy your ego. They make you understand that no matter what you know, you’ll never know enough or be enough to do it without them.
They change you from believing in God, to knowing in God. That only He can bring flawed individuals together and create a masterpiece much greater than the separate parts. And that He will, when, and only when we prove ourselves worthy of the stewardship.
That great accomplishment, be it horses or humans, is made up of teams that are in sync and mirror each other.
Great horses make you understand unconditional giving and fill you with the lesson of humbleness and gratitude. The only thing they expect in return, is breakfast.

💯

Everything comes with a price

A sensitive horse is going to be sensitive to both light aids AND your accidental aids and mistakes

A quiet school horse is going to give you room to fumble with your hands and legs, and they are also likely to ignore them when you mean to use them.

It isn’t fair to want the reward without the price. It isn’t fair to take from a horse without giving- and it all comes down to working on ourselves: our expectations, riding abilities, mindset, and awareness. You can’t have a perfectly performing horse without putting in your own work. A horse is not a computer or a robot- they rise to, or fall to, the level of the horseman.

Today’s weather is brought to you by the month of Junuary, we seem to be stuck in the 50’s near 60’s. Horses are still in their mid weights, and summer has yet to peek her lil head out. Hopefully this weekends forecast holds true, 70’s and 80!!🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
