Remarkable performing horses

The Deer

I'm a little behind. This blog thing takes a lot of time. Sometimes it cooperates, sometimes it doesn't

Parelli

You have to like horses to know who Parelli is.
This whole weekend we went to the Ag Center and tried to figure out HOW to have a better communication with our horses. The guy with the handle bar mustach is Parelli. He makes horses his business, he has a good program and a great sales pitch !!!
Shellsea, Claudie, & Olivia are getting autographed -- that part was free

Riding with the Wind

Cashmere is so soft, it's inviting to want to nap right on her neck

The weather is changing so fast. I need to pack a whole winter and summer layers when I leave the house in the morning. Actually these winter pics were taken back in Feb. We had a dusting of snow - it melted by 10:00. I'll have more flowers when I get next rolls of film developed.

These lamas were so CUTE. These women compete with them. I wasn't sure what the compitition was, they had special halters and back packs and today they were going for a 5 mile walk.




Horse meets lama
Another beautiful ride at the Dupont. I know it gets repetive, but it's just so much fun. Each trail is a new adventure.

I love sweet little water crossings like this, so do the horses, it's a nice place for a drink and if they had it their way they would roll in it !

We folled a path along this stream fro about 10 mins. The sound of the stream sang to us as the foot steps and rythem of the horses tranported us to mental and nature heavan.
This is the biggest lake in the park, just now with all the leaves down, the scenery goes on forever . I don't know which is prettier the scenery, the horse or Shellsea -- I don't even have to pick It's a complete package
