Senegal and I had the opportunity (thanks Helen!) to ride with Marcus Orlob over the weekend and it was an excellent experience. Nothing groundbreaking, just a fair and high level of attention to detail and basics and encouragement to raise my expectations of myself and my horse. Senegal as always was the best guy and tried his little heart out. Today he said he needs lots of naps... But of course he still needs nourishment as well 😂😍😍😍 Thanks for hosting!!!

Because of the design I wanted to do, I had to use a different technique... Little harder to see but still came out okay I think. 😂

Fun to look through these ears and at beautiful Bella (nee Bea)'s little face again!!

Four (!!!) years ago I worked with this pretty lady and helped her find the best home! She moved to California, but her new owner took a fancy to WNC...so they moved here after a while!!

Bella and her mom are still smitten with each other after all this time and it makes my little heart so happy. 🥰

I have (clearly) gotten out of the habit of posting. Thought I'd try to get back into the swing of things...and what better way than with the cutest buckskin pony b***y!!

Most people make designs with pumpkins this time of year...I use equine b***y's! 🤣

It is time for the best minded young horse to find his person. Feinali SF is a 2019 16/16.1 hand GOV gelding by Feinrich. We have had Finn since he was a weanling and he has always been extremely personable and a barn favorite. No health or soundness issues in his whole life. Very lightly started last fall, then got the winter off. He has been in real work for a few short months and has already been to a big recognized show where he won his training level class with high 60s scores and a 7.5 for gaits. He also seems to show some talent and interest over fences and is great to hack out. This young horse is very suitable for an AA to continue to bring along. He is easy in the barn/pasture, no vices, does all the things, loves attention. Located in Hendersonville NC. 4🥕,🥕🥕🥕. ⛵ only

I had such a good time taking Helen V Frederick 's baby Finn to his first big boy show this weekend!!! He was a super!!

Ashley Guinn gave him a great first outing at the last FRC show and he was confident and rideable this weekend even with all the hustle and bustle of a big show at TIEC 😍

Despite sweltering temperatures and a tough judge, this lovely young horse got in the upper 60s (with a 7.5 for gaits) and a 1st and 2nd in his classes. Not too shabby for being thrown in the deep end after only a few months under saddle 🤩

This awesome kid is starting the search for his new person...and if they wanted him to stay in the barn for a while for some more training, none of us would be sad 🤪💖💖💖💖

Can't believe it's a whole new year of the always fabulous Foothills Riding Club shows!

I rode 5 horses over the 2 days (I have a problem 🤪🤦).

The 2 on Saturday, who will remain nameless, were plagued by too much tension for their difficult tests. 🙃 But that is what schooling shows are for, right?? 😬

On Sunday the most handsome Zorro was a total superstar!!! Handled his first show like a champ and despite his pilot not creating a crisp/accurate test, scored a 69% and blue ribbon, with great feedback from the judge. The other 2 on Sunday (also remaining nameless) were Sassy!! The stuff they did as asked scored well...but there were too many opinions other than mine 😜🤦

Ashley and Cookie had their first ever outing and he was a total gentleman about the whole experience! They scored as high as 71% and swept all their classes! 💪💪

It was a good weekend of learning and as always we appreciate this wonderful schooling show series!!!

griffith got some nice shots of some of the hooligans 🤩
