The School of Life with Horses

A blog covering my journey with my quarter horses and paint horse. Horse show news from the Pacific Northwest, to do lists, horse tips as I learn and share them, my struggles and solutions - basically everything horse as I come across it.

Patrick Enjoying Himself!

He was turned out the other day -


He remembers being home now and is saying "Got any treats Mom?"
"If I recall I usually get treats here."



There is that pretty white mane!
Notbad color, considering Mom was Gray and Dad was bay. No spots on eitherone of them or on their papers as far back as you can read. Go figure.



It's very thick right now...I can't wait to hit it with the whitening shampoo. Whatta kute wittle face!


Does anyone else think he's look rather palomino-ish? Just wait till the sun lightens the sorrel this summer.
Ashe is standing next to the fence in this shot look at where his hip is?That is not a small fence. I need to official stick him and see howtall he is.



Thisis the first time he ever stood up. When he was born I measured him at41 or 42 inches - which is like TEN HANDS. His legs were all crookedfrom being coiled up inside his mama. For a while we had to keep in hima small corral cause he was growing so fast - and my vet concern aboutthat and he wanted his legs to straiten up before he got to run aroundmuch.
That's why I named him BIGGER THAN INFINITY.



HisMama was huge when she was pregnant with him. And that pic was only at9 months - I thought she was gonna split open when she hit 11.


Poor gal was carrying so much weight, she was so lame. She had arthritis in her hips and was so sore. She glad to get him out!


Here is the moose now - headed for better grass. I just love that cheeck!

About inclined2ride

Live up in Northeastern Washington State - where its cold and we have snow for a loooooong time. Been riding horses since before I could walk - grew up doing the 4-H / FFA thing, and a lot of Open shows. Was educated in Western riding as well as English riding and Jumping. Survived college on Top Roman so that I could keep my horse up there with me. Am now all grown-up with a non-horse husband, and 3 horses to boot (technically 2 horses). I currently show on the local and regional Quarter Horse Circuit with a Paint Show thrown in when I can. Horses are as much a part of me as my arms or legs.
