El nino, weird or what?

Glad to see you back and posting, journey11! Beautiful horse you have there. I love his head -- nice shape to it.

That's a real pretty horse Journey. But I do wish I could see a picture of his face and the front of him.

This is all I could find. He's just like a kid. If you want them to look at you they won't, but if they do, they're making funny faces.



Oh, and that is Ava in the first picture I posted. She's 8 now. We just started 4-H this year and I hope she'll want to show him some day. He needs some work with a trainer first and she needs riding lessons. We've not put her on him without being led on a halter. He's technically only green-broke, although he has been ridden a lot otherwise.

Sorry to derail the thread! These pics were taken on a quite normal fall afternoon.

Red Big box stores have cheap battery alarms, you might want to think of one for your bedroom door. People use them if someone sleep walks. Going outside alone in middle of night in winter can be very dangerous.

From today's Times Union:

"ALBANY - The Capital Region is about to break the record for warmest December.

The previous record was set in 1881.

Normally, the average temperature in December is 28.6 degrees but this year the average high its on pace for 41.9 degrees."

This Dec felt a lot warmer then 41.9

Thanks for those pictures Journey. He has very unusual markings.

Evidently "being in his glory"only lasts so long. I'm thinking we're going to keep his snow shoveling down to no more then 40 minutes per half day. He came in after 40-ish minutes, took a coffee break and went back out for another half hour before DS brought him back in weaving like a drunk. No more today.

DS said he will finish the driveway tomorrow. It is long and wide. There is enough to drive in and out as well as to turn around, so it is good. The turn-around part can wait another day. I sure do wish I could get my garden tractor in for repairs so I could use the snowblower attachment. I need the truck for that and DS has constant use of the truck. He's the one who needs to take things in for me -- or go without transportation himself. I want my snowblower!

You NEED your snow blower. There is TOO much to shovel by hand. Make it a priority.

He is stunning. Thanks for sharing pics of him with us.
