Notes From Around the Arena
June 25th - July 1st , 2013
How I see it.
Pony Camp this week was great fun:
We had Evelyn and Olivia Williamson from Seattle, Alex and Olivia Mazzucco, Uma got to come for the 3 day camp and Jamila and Remilu too.
We had a great week working horses bareback and Western and English.
Danielle led us in making our own herbal fly dressing. We tied fly repelling herbs into the horses manes and tails.
Clair and Danielle showed us how to make some different types of braids. Like french braid, and fishtail. The horses seemed to enjoy the
extra attention.
We rode down the driveway to the main road and talked about the pony express riders and horses hoofs and joint concussion on various
types of road surface.
On Friday Danielle, Clair and I made a beach run.
We rode Cowboy, Pharaoh and Rocky. It was a beautiful day. We even saw Alex and Olivia Mazzucco at the beach, what a great suprise.
Danielle and Clair got to change out a tire on the trailer. That was exciting.
Saturday we rode the Circle D show in Vacaville. It was terribly hot.
Sunday however was at least 20 degrees cooler and it even sprinkled on us.
We stayed over an extra night in Vacaville and saw Dr. Martin for acupuncture on Monday.
What a great week.
