~~~ February,,,, was a month full of, being sick, lame horse, too much work and feeling non~productive..
But,,, we're in March now, so let the riding begin.
Powder is still on stall rest, I hope to get her to Dr. Vanzwol this week.
Brown Pony has her new shoes on and is back on the trail.
Although yesterday, her first ride in a month,,, was interesting, she was a little on the muscle, at first, well, until about the half way point of the ride. The little bush pickers were out, I only saw one, but the way BP was behaving there were more in the woods. She gets braver every time we go out.. all in all, she did well with having a whole month off.
The water crossing on this very old decommissioned road, now a trail, is one of my favorite little places, the water is crystal clear, the footing is solid, and the little plants are beautiful.
We took our time here, Butters messed around a bit, the first time Butters had to cross this it was almost a foot deeper, and he was trying desperately to traverse the bushes on the side of trail so as to not have to swim.. He truly is the best little riding friend.
