A Man and his Horse

Keep in mind:


JC has only had 60 days Undersaddle

He is a 4 yr old stallion

He hadn't been ridden in a year

Our mares were in plain sight

...John is a 100% beginner rider, but he is a brave ol' boy and loves this horse, and this horse loves him.
 
Easy to tack up
Getting used to the saddle
JC needed to relieve himself, so John thought
he would make the funniest pose possible from it

That beautiful Arab head

Just get on and ride, as Garth Brooks says

Horse nor Man any worse for the wear. . .

I will say, I recommended a Helmet - John declined.

He feels he should have been a cowboy. . .

At our Farm
Spring 2010
Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds. For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation? The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered. The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field. And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens

- Proverbs 27:23-27


"I know of no pursuit in which more real and important services can be rendered to any country than by improving its agriculture, its breed of useful animals, and other branches of a husbandman's cares."

- George Washington
