More pics

Who doesn't like seeing a lot of good pics of a horse? When it's your own horse, they're even better. But when it's your horse that you've not only raised, but also trained- they're the best.

These are a bit blurry, but you can still see the lift, suspension and extension in his movement. I was lunging my little guy the other day and he was really moving like a little Rock Star. And I'm still always amazed by my Katman.








Booyah!


Reeeeeaaaaccccchhhhhh.....

Vvvvvvvrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooooommmmmmm

Bell boots are a must because he overreaches 




He's so goofy




Sadly enough, this was the last time he would wear his Roma open front jump boots. After 6 years of a lotta use, scubbing, an alteration to make them fit bettier and having the straps replaced twice- they have split up the back and are literally falling apart. Sadly enough since they are no longer available in white, I have to go with another brand.

1000's of words

A picture is worth a thousand words and at the show there were obviously people taking pictures. People with their cell phones, people with their pro camera set ups, complete with an assortment of lenses. I managed to get a short clip of video of a couple with their pair of Friesians as they went cruising across the grass by the pond. I was hoping to get them at the canter but by the time I got the camera phone going I was only able to get the trot. They've shown in AZ before and their actually from Round Top.

The lady parked next to us had the only entry for Long Ears, a mini Donkey called Nick. Sally's friend Amy Wink a fellow driver, was there taking pictures and got a few of us. With her permission I share them here....

Nick with Kat in the bakground. Nick is clearly a mini and he is such a friendly little guy. 
I think this was before the ladies to drive class

This is one of my faves-

Always a clown

Between classes


Trying to entertain himself


Waiting for our class

Not sure which class this was

Can we focus? You know, Inside the ring... lol

Walk please...

Really not sure what we're doing here, but we were trotting at least.

And reverse 


Saving the best for last......


This pic is defiinitely going to be printed and framed if I ever get the chance
