Today was a nice fall day . Clouds floating over head and the sun peeking out every now and then with a fresh yet chilly breeze blowing .
Today was the last event weekend of our horse club for the season . Miggs, Papa and I are all fresh aired out now and I imagine so are all the riders and horses .
These beasts are so beautiful yet powerful and some are very big and can be quite intimidating to the non horse person . One girl’s horse was so feisty he would not let her mount so as I was close I held him so she could mount properly and he fought me but in a stern voice and good grip I told him NO THAT’S ENOUGH !!! and he stopped and looked down at me with ears forward as if to say .. ok lady I got it ! here’s me 4”9 as she sit’s way up on him and said thanks . When I was younger I worked and trained with horses and rode … like riding a bike I really don’t think you forget how to handle them !
This beauty is Sara . She is sweetheart !
Here we have Trigger a very placid boy !
We both took lots of photos but today I wanted more photos of horsey faces !
Such gentle eyes they have ! It’s the ears you need to watch , forward means listening paying attention and happy , ears back , look out I am in a mood !
Yup you guessed it Mr Ed lol Eddie here had his last event today as he is now retired . This old placid boy is in his 20’s and loves to doze off no matter where he is .
This black beauty was the feisty one that wouldn’t let his rider mount !
Then there was this really cute little 4 year old who was in an event called lead line did a wonderful job on his Mums horse with mum at the lead .
All in all it was a good day with nice people lovely fall weather and beautiful beasts !
Until next time . Have a snap happy day !
