Cross country practice!

New Topic

• danastark Posted : 3/11/2012 4:48:39 PM I finally got around to loading up some pictures of the girls from their cross country practice last month:   Shaylea on her new boy, Chocolate.  She's used to riding a sedate pony and learned she needs to work on her lower leg on a horse that has some speed and power to his jump       Kelly and Tahoe had a good day.  Tahoe always clears everything by a mile!     This was his first time over a trakhener (ditch underneath that you can't see) and he was making sure he cleared it once he decided to take the leap, leaving Kelly behind!!   LIKE 6 REPLIES 3251 VIEWS LAST POST DANASTARK Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jungle_cat Posted : 3/11/2012 7:17:50 PM Lovely pictures - thanks for sharing! Jumping and cross country are one of those things I watch and really want to try but I know I will never have the guts to try.

• 3equines Posted : 3/11/2012 10:29:14 PM Yikes! I would probably look like that last picture, if I am in the picture at all when my horse takes a running jump! Must be a lot of fun but I'll save jumping for the occasional windfall across my trail! Wonderful pictures.

• hunterseat Posted : 3/12/2012 2:15:11 AM I got the kids mixed up and thought Kelly was on Chocolate! When did Shay grow those legs? []   Your girls look so good! Looks like so much fun, too! *envious* The horses look great, too! Chocolate looks like a champ. Shayla looks really good on him! I thought that was hubby's horse. [] And the K&T team are always looking good!   Did Kelly braid Tahoe's tail? LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• danastark Posted : 3/12/2012 4:01:19 AM K & S are the same height, 5' 6" now.  Kelly loves to braid and does all kinds of neat designs on his tail.  She'd make $ braiding at shows someday.   No, Chocolate was for Shaylea because she has outgrown Spirit and at 18+, he really shouldn't be jumping much anymore.   Bet there's a lot of eventing and such in CT!  So is the job for sure now?

• hunterseat Posted : 3/12/2012 11:50:29 AM They sent me an acceptance letter. I signed it accepting the job and sent it back. There's one more formality and that's  having my security clearance "transferred" and I have one already so I don't anticipate a problem.  I'm really thinking I'll get my start date this week and I can announce it Thursday at roll call.     eta: YAY!!!  *happy dancing* [] LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
