How We Met

I decided that my mare, Lily was too much for me after she scared two trainers while being despooked, so I called a lady my trainers know and buy horses from who helps people find the perfect horse and also helps people sell their horses. Well, the first horse she had ended up being sold to my trainer's daughter and they weren't gonna let him go. So, then she called about two horses: Skipper, a horse so calm that he was ridden the five miles to this lady's house with the bit on wrong, the back cinch too tight and who knows what else done wrong with the tack, AFTER just sitting in the field for two years, and an 11 year old trained in dressage, started in Jumping and with the price at less than half what his training cost because needed him gone ASAP so they wouldn't have to pay board for a horse they weren't using.
Well, I went to see Skipper because he was closer, and we had quite a rocky start. I actually had to start the trail on a different horse and then we switched horses half way, and in the 30 minutes I rode Skipper, I fell love. He came home that day, and he's happy to finally have a job!

Hey guys, how did your Monday go?

It finally warmed up a little, but its still windy. Yesterday I rode both Misty and Dakota, they where full of pep and lots of fun to ride. While I was riding Dakota some beef calves got out, so we chased them in, and later while I was riding Misty, the Holstein steers got out so we chased them in too, wich was a lot of fun, the horses and I get a kick out of chasing those little rascals.
I also did some ground work with Sierra.

Question of the day: If you had the chance to spend a day with a famous horseman or horsewoman of your choice, who would you choose and why?
I would probably choose Clinton Anderson, as his method seems to be very effective.

Thanks everyone for all the support for Dakota's HOTM run, keep it up!
Maria, Dakota N the girls
