Our Equestrian



We're back from our travels and I'm so far behind on everything that I've just decided to take it a day at a time.

I promised to post some photos of our granddaughter's horse so here are two.  This was an outdoor competition called a "Play Day" for her 4-H horse club.  Her horse is a Paint named Denali.  She's a wonderful horse.

That's it for now.  I've got to get through this weekend and then I will buckle down and get serious about this blog stuff!!  Have a great weekend, everyone.

NOTE:  I'm posting this on the Camera Critters  meme, today.  It's my first submission.  Camera Critters is a fun photo blog...check it out.

  1. Your granddaughter looks like she's right in her element and knows exactly what she's doing with this beautiful horse.

    Cheryl there's no race here, you'll post when you have the time. I'm sure that we all have those times in our lives where our attention is needed elsewhere. I'm looking forward to your posts but all in good time.

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Your granddaughter is lucky to have her own beautiful horse, and Denali is lucky to have her.
    I remember myself riding at her age, a long time ago . . .

  15. How lucky your granddaughter is to have such a beautiful horse! My sister was a horse lover and now that she's retired, it's the joy of her life. Horses can be a lifelong passion.

  17. Hi Cheryl. Thanks for the "follow". I like your philosophy in the manner of Ralph Emerson, what a wonderful quote. Your recipe for camping cookies sounds just great, an ideal treat to take birding with me, the trouble is i'm not a good cook. Please send me a box or two to sample.

I just love reading your comments. It's part of what makes blogging so much fun, don't you think?

Unfortunately, because of a recent spat of spam, for awhile I'll be reviewing comments before publishing them.

Thanks for understanding.
