And here are some pictures!
I was very excited to attend the 40th annual Schnitzelburg Dainty Contest with friends Hilary and Sam last Monday. It was quite exciting - the longest hit I saw was 126ft! All donations went to the Little Sisters of Charity, and Mother Isabelle was named the 2010 Dainty Queen!

The colt is a week old today and all leg! I have yet to see him run, but he's had a very busy week with the following achievements:
Being born Learning to use legs All body parts and functions work properly Introduction to Electric Fence 101 Playtime in the water bucket with Auntie Ellin Picking up feet Wearing halter (though not being led) Swatting flies Being rained on Tasting absolutely everything in the world Posing for photos Birthday boy did not, however, wish to pose this morning, so I haven't any new pictures to post. I have several ideas for a registered name, but he still needs a barn name that equals 6. (see post regarding naming Ellin) Possibilities are Bunyip, Scion (works as a registered name, too, since Majestic Prince is in his family), and Antares. Comment today to vote for your favorite, or post ideas! Miss Ellin remains unbroken, and I am beginning to form an ugly picture in my mind. I believe the breeder DID start Ellin under saddle and am beginning to think something may have happened during gate training or in some other confined space. Cheyenne Brown has entered Ellin's world and, while we have not made any progress, this wonderful girl is as confident as I am that Ellin is not hopeless. Cheyenne is tall, fearless, and trains the same way I do, and I have every faith that together we will find the key to unlocking this filly's potential. |
