It seems that the paint folks in the Southeast are like groundhogs – we kind of stay burrowed up for the winter. I ventured 500 miles south to Florida for the super cool DPHC show, but after that I have no more shows until Clemson POR at the end of February.
So I check out [...]

I woke up after a cool time at Downtown Disney and go feed Ace. She is MUCH happier and demanding grain. After she eats I take her lunging and obsess on her nose. All clear woo hoo! Not sure if it was the weather or what but my horse is back.

Yesterday was a bizarre day. I was threatened, sent hate mail and generally bullied because of my defense of GOOD trainers. It is weird how people think. Oh well.
I have no news of Slow Lopin Scotch other than he is healing and his owner is riding him now and he is still healing. Cleve Wells’ [...]

Went out and rode Ace tonight, the horse was great but the rider not so good. I had a really busy day at work and I have a ton of work to still do and no end in site and I just was not able to focus.
I practiced horsemanship and am very happy that I [...]
