Horse Lessons

Horse Back Riding Lessons!  Horses are very enjoyable.  The barn where we are learning to ride has just three horses right now, but the funny thing is the biggest horse who is almost a pony because he is so small has a shoulder injury and he is a laid back horse so he never goes very fast.  His name is Bullet.  The next biggest is Coal but he is not broken yet.  The smallest, the pony, is a naughty little fireball but he is my favorite.  He is white with a grey strip down his back.   His name is Bob  Here are a couple of pictures from different lessons.

Me on Bob


 You can sort of tell in the picture above that Bob is being a little bit naughty.  Finally he went to far and our teacher had to get on him to show him who was boss.

Goodbye Billy and Pee-wee

I never thought the day would come where we would have to part with are sweet pot bellied pigs.  We just couldn't keep them in there pen.  We were sort of in hot water with the neighbors about the pigs rooting up there yards.  This morning we got a visit from a neighbor that wasn't very happy.  The pigs had ruined his yard.  Some neighbors own a horse farm down the road and they kindly bought them for us.  We were sad to see them go but it was a big weight off our backs, plus we can see them whenever we visit them.  Also, soon after the pigs were sold an animal control man stopped by. I ansered the door and he said some neighbors had complained about two black pot bellied pigs rooting up there yard.  I hesitated before answering but before I could he asked, "Don't you have two pigs?"  No.  He looked surprised and said "What?"  I answered we had sold them this morning and it all made since to him.  He was very nice.  Well, the goats hooves got trimed today and we are thankful for that.  Until next time I hoped you enjoyed reading this post.
