Sunday Stills - Moods and Emotions
This week's Sunday Stills Challenge is Moods and Emotions:
This challenge is for you to get a shot that enables a response in the person who views your pic not one that is your personal emotion.
This is what I came up with
Zip and Tinker playing
My daughter on Daisy
Belle sleeping in the pasture
(no, she's not dead - she got up as soon as she realized I was there)
Sunrise on my way to work
Bandit barking

It looks like a carrot...
"Hey, that thing really looks like a carrot"
"I'll just taste it and see"
"Blah, it's not a carrot!"

Skywatch Friday - Season 4 Episode 26
T on Daisy after last week's snow fall. The sky was the same color as the snow and the wind was blowing. We're in the middle of a cold snap and it's snowing once again this morning. At least each day gets longer and I am no longer leaving work in the dark.

One of the Advantages to Being Short...
You still fit on ponies! It was cold with a fresh coating of snow but I managed to get on Daisy to get a feel for her. And once again, I look like the StayPuf Marshallow Man - hat under the helmet, big quilted jacket with at least 2 layers underneath, breeches, full chaps, paddock boots, and heavy leather fleece lined gloves. And she didn't even notice.
I'm catching up on blog postings and comments so if I haven't visited lately, I promise I will get there sometime this week.

Daisy
T's riding skills have improved greatly in the last year. She rides quite a bit and has expressed interest in doing more English riding and possibly showing other than gymkhanas. We have been keeping our eyes out for a project that she can work with and maybe show in some English classes. Jet and Zip can both be ridden English but they really excel at neck reining and more Western style riding.
T came across a 4 year old Haflinger mare online who is said to be very broke and would make a good English prospect. The pony came to the farm just before Christmas and T has named her Daisy. Sunday was sunny and warm for this time of year (in the low 40s) so it seemed like a good time to try her out. T used her Western saddle since we weren't sure how the pony was going to react. Daisy was a peach. She's not very tall but she's sturdy and smooth.
