So, yesterday we moved Sarge and two of his friends. It went really well! I skipped two classes to do so (I can make up the work, and I wasn't going to miss being there) and met Kat (who, with her . . .

So, lately I'd been a little down about riding. Not that I didn't still love it, but I just wasn't sure what I wanted to do-- mainly concerning showing. I'd been showing Snickers. Now, Snickers is one . . .

It was an early morning. Too early, for me, but that's to be expected on a horse show day. I woke my mom, and we readied ourselves. Breeches, boots, show shirt... make sure not to forget the helmet, gloves, . . .

My friend Kate, who has her three horses (War Bandit, Lefty and Scotch) with Sarge, invited me to use one of her horses to go on a rail ride last weekend, with Mike, who has a trailering business and . . .

On Saturday, a group of people from the barn were planning on bringing their horses to Island Beach State Park in NJ for some trail riding along the beach. I decided that it would be good to bring Sarge, . . .

Sergeant Pepper did fine overnight at the vets' and is coming home today. I thank everyone who sent good thoughts our way! I can finally stop playing the role of worried mother. And he'll be back . . .

So, on the 16th, I had another show with Atticus, the horse I've been riding a lot lately. We'd shown the week before, as well, and gotten Grand Champion , but I'll admit it was raining for that show, . . .

I took Jacob to meet Sarge for the first time yesterday and got some cute photos... I figured I'd share them :)
"Ooh, what's this? Another human with a tasty camera?"

Here's Part II of the last horse show of the season.
When I left off in Part I, Atticus was being grumpy about slowing down to pause between our second course and its Jump Off. Then they sounded . . .

On Saturday, I had a horse show. That isn't really unusual for this season; it's been the norm since I joined the Equestrian Team at Rutgers my freshman year. Except that, now, I've completed . . .

I had my last horse show of the year on November 7th. It was cold, so I don't really mind that it'll be the last until spring rolls around, but I've been having a blast showing Atticus, so I'll miss that . . .

I've been promising this photoessay for a while, but I finally grabbed the scorecard from the barn and scanned it in, woo!
In any case, I'd been practicing with Sarge, and the day before, he'd gotten . . .

Recently, Mike, one of the guys who I board Sarge with brought in an old, starved Belgian. (Smallll Belgian, even if he'd been in good health!) Apparently, poor Feathers had once been a cart horse, and . . .

I feed at Sarge's, usually once a week. I'm on the 'breakfast shift'. Care to come along with me?
Upon opening the barn door, the sight of hungry horses greets my eyes.

So, yesterday was my first horse show on a different horse- Atticus. I haven't ridden him too much lately, but I've really clicked with him and he's a lot of fun. I was nervous, at first, but the day . . .

Yesterday, I spent a lot of time at the barn.
In the morning, I fed all of the horses. The barn is a co-op barn, so we take turns with the feedings and such, and I usually handle the Friday morning . . .

I'd originally posted this to my online journal, but I figured it would amuse a few of you guys, too! He's been on a rampage...

One day, earlier this summer, I was at the barn and the horses were stuck inside due to thunderstorms. I'd just dumped two bags of feed into Sarge's big storage bin, and decided that since he was . . .

So, after a pretty horrible night, this morning lifted my mood quite a bit. On my way home last night, I was pulled over for speeding (yes, yes, I know, don't speed and all of that) and realized that . . .

I've shared a little bit from my college's Ag Field Day so far, but I figured I'd make a photoessay with more of the day!
To explain a bit... the yearlings are picked out and worked with . . .
