My Bobcat sponsored ride for Little Everglades

Mary “Dede” Delaney’s pair of German Riding Ponies at Little Everglades

Spring is coming!

Flowers starting to push up, weather wet and warmer, got to drive outside yesterday, but rain all day today. Thank you for the indoor Gail!

Little Everglades Ranch CAI

While overall the test was bad, we did have our moments!

We made it to sunny Florida late Tuesday night, all safe and sound. Everyone worked well yesterday and there was a fair amount of interest in the new horse from those who saw him. First Vet inspection at 8:00 and dressage at 13:15. DeDe does dressage tomorrow!

lazy day

Well, not totally, since I got up and went to Wally World to get items to take on the FL trip, washed the truck (so naturally it’s raining now) and doing little non-barn projects. It’s too bad days off aren’t longer, I could get more done!

Bigger picture of Quincey…

This was taken by Bob Branam Photography at the Live Oak CAI. Quincey was a Hanoverian X Lipizzaner, bred, born and registered in Belgium.

Zambo

I had a fantastic drive with Zambo yesterday! Outside in the big wind, still stayed happy and light. Looking forward to seeing what we can do in FL!

American Saddlebred Horse Association

Debbie Bandfield and I are off this morning to give a talk about combined driving to the ASHA this morning! Should be a nice chance to spread the sport to a group mostly unaware of it! Above is the American Saddlebred gelding, former Five Gaited Champion, Singsation, owned by Darryl Leifheit of Lexington.

Beautiful day in KY!

It’s warm and the layers are coming off fast! Clipped Zambo in preperation for his trip to
FL. Got confirmation yesterday that I have a new sponsor! So proud to be sponsored by LIFEFORCE, an Equine nutritional supplement made by Alltech! Two more to clip before we go, and everybody is working really well and it should be a good show! My previous working student/assistant trainer Lindsey Nevitt will be joining us for the trip, and then Chamilla Lewis will be meeting us in FL. Of course, Dr. Ying will be around to add support and veterinary assistance too!
