Moon over my horsie

I've been sick, but keeping up on suzandtrav.blogspot.com, but had a nice moment to share with my horses this evening.

I try to remain aware of my horsemanship even if I am just going out to feed. Jake and Drifter were out today while I was home with this stupid cold. Hey, I am not used to being sick, so I get a little dramatic about it.

Anyway, the full moon is awaiting tomorrow's eclipse and Drifter decided it was playtime before dinner.

Playtime is fine, but I wanted to ensure that he finished "with me" instead of "with food". So I snapped some shots while he did his thing.

Full moon fever

He sought refuge from Jake, who wanted none of it. I love the next picture because it is quintessential Jake & Drifter. Jake (ears back) clearly irritated by the presence of his kid brother and Drifter (ears forward) obviously oblivious.

Jake, will you at least smile for the camera?

So I sent Drifter off to find the good place to be and when he found me, we were done. Jake knows the drill all too well and keeps close to me or just doesn't move. He just wanted his dinner.

But my cute little palomino is coming along nicely. I know it doesn't seem like much, but every moment with him means something to me. I can't believe he's the same horse that took hours to come to me when I first started working with him in April. Now, it takes minutes.

He is just so willing...

I am still here...

So Travis suggested I start a blog about his knee surgery. And then I thought there is so much more to write about in our lives besides my adventures in horsemanship.

So, I have started a second blog suzandtrav.blogspot.com for knee surgery, VW bug restoration, home improvements, travels, and all else Travis and Suzanne.

Please stay with onehorsemanship.blogspot.com as well, as this blog will remain live for all things horsemanship.
