10 Days








Its 10 days till we move the girl to TRP (The Riding Place) and im pretty excited. I have a horse I am getting back into shape and working and will be showing this year. He is a 16.1 hand QH gelding named Spider. Lanny and I are also getting in another horse. A four year old Morgan mare. she is black witha brown mane and tail, just like my old mare Millie.






Lanny also works at TRP. He does stalls the five days I dont. He has his horse named "Not" and they are very cute together. Lanny and I go pick Klassy up on the 30th.



Here are some pics of Spider and I, Lanny and his horse. More commin soon.

Well hmm

Its all crazy here, life has been very hectic, as my cat had kittens and they all died and so I spent 3 days with the babies that lived, and then they just couldnt make it.

Then I had a reat lesson last sunday with Bo, she tok her time to get to know Klassy and I was really pleased with her, and Klassy.

This last week has been great and hectic, I have now Gotten on and ridding Klassy twioce, and she was so good, she didnt try anything the first ride and loved it and was great fun to ride. The second time she got a bit more frisky, and did a little playin around and bucked the smallest bucks I have ever felt! but I just worked her through it and ended on a good note.

I am sad and sorry to say I had a horrid day on Friday, as I saw Hutch o off completly on a boarder, only 2 years older then me, in front of al the other boarders, and it was just a scene and I felt unsafe, for me and my horse and I know thats not okay, I wont put myslef and my horse in a place I cant feel safe at. Not that this barn was for us to be at for a year or two or even tree, it was all in the plan to stay just for a few months. But I wishI didnt have to leave this soon, we just got here!

Money, transporrtation, time, and saftey..... all comes into play when I look at this.... Its hard for me to get out as much as I would like, its costin alot of time, Klassy isnt feelin safe around Hutch, I dont feel safe around Hutch, and its just pretty messy. I would like to trust Hutch, as he is a ood person, and I respect him, he means the best and Im sure he works well with his horses and with his clients, But from what I saw, and heard and how my horse shy's away from him, It's like sins are pointin to to move on..... So........... I talked it over and showed the good and bad with the barn we are at now with my mom.... and she arees, so I just went and took alook at this other barn with my mom today, In port orchard..... well we fell in love, its clean, safe (he has cameras EVERYWERE!) I can work off the board, it only a 30 minute boat ride away, and theni take 15 minute shuttle to the road and its right there! There are LOTS of kids there, they host shows, they havea on site, 24/7 cartaker who lives in the barn property! So I feel great about that, they havea horse they want me to ride, and work with and show in the summer and fall. His name is Spider, he is a 16 hand Foundation QH gelding, witha blaze, and look in his eye that will get him trouble. Also... Asia Thayer is a trainer there... also I worked with her about 2-3 years ago when I had a morgan mare on vashon, and I highly respect her, she is amazing, she is one of the best trainers I have ever come across, and makes me want to be a great trainer like her somday. Oh I am not done YET! They want me to start a kids camp there! they are great lovely people, who know all about horses, and saftly and are very family based, He built this amazin barn himslef and his wife and him breed QH and they have some very nice horses,

I cant wait, also My friend Brooke ( this sweet 19 yr old, my friend, wsa the oone who was harrased by Hutch.) is also moving her horse, and is looking into moving Miley (her Irish Draught Sport Horse) with us to the new barn, Its called the riding place. I love it here. more then Hutchs, adn OMG is Hutchs place nice.

well thats all for now, I havea lesson tomarrow. with BO, im looking forward to it. Yet i do have to say i am nervouse to go out there because of what i saw with hutch. and it just made me feel unsafe. and i hate that feeling. so nite loves.
miss you all
