The Seasons are a Changing
Yesterday was a strange weather day. It started out cool. Then the sun came out around noon and it got darn warm. Then a wind came up around 3:00. A COLD wind! And then a COLD rain.

It was somewhat hot and humid again today but I didn’t ride all weekend so I decided to bite the bullet. Since I was just going to ride in the arena, I decided to ride English for a change. I even put on the only breeches I still have. They’re kind of more like tights…
I’ve been dancing around this horse trailer driving thing for years. But I swear, this is going to be the year that I become an expert at hitching, backing, and all around maneuvering this monster.
“He has good feet,”
I’ve been told more than once.
“No hoof. No horse.”
so thank goodness.
A white hoof is a bad hoof
but that’s just a myth…
It’s the little things that pump you up and it’s the little things that can quickly deflate you. I won’t bore you with the tire poppers. They’ll work out eventually. Besides, there are the pumper uppers to compensate: My son commented on my new Facebook photo with a simple “You’re pretty”. (big Maery smile). Other…
Guess what it’s been doing all week? That’s right, it’s been raining. And the horses have been hiding out. And there has been much wiping of Java paws. The clouds have been pretty interesting. But nothing, not rain, nor sleet, nor snow, stops Java from playing with her branches. But today we are looking at…

Your weather, sounds just like mine! We just went through a change, where it got really windy, than the rain started. It’s been pouring for hours! I shouldn’t complain, we haven’t had much rain in months! But I really hate the wet.
It is supposed to be pretty cold tonight, and my horse shoer is out early in the morning! Yikes! I just might be wearing my long underwear!
I love what you did with the pine cones! I love that smell!
Wind is always our first sign of winter. I hear that horses get freaked out by wind so I’m glad that you weren’t at the park when it hit!
Hi Mary…I photographed trees blowing in the wind too. A crazy day.
When will you close your pool? They are a lot of work when it gets to this time of the year. I am going to have to check out the blog you wrote about. No question…meeting people from around the world has been a great experience.
I’ll have to get some video of our winter wind storms. They *are* something!
We really need to skim our pond. It’s completely overgrown with moss. I keep threatening to put on waders and just slog my away across like SWAMP THING to pull it out.
Wow, those pine cones of yours are emence!
Yes, I love to cyber meet people too…it’s like the world get smaller.
