Training Update 4/24/11

Did 15 miles on Helo today out to Sandy Point and back, with Michelle Graham and Ace. Sarah was celebrating Easter with her family and couldn't come. Went pretty slow, also went without Renegades since we don't have a new one to replace the broken one yet. Other than getting beat up by some downed branches from recent storms (my fault, not the horse), everything went great. Helo was a perfect gentleman! We also conquered the Hill of Doom on the way home.

For cuteness factor, here is a picture of Michelle's colt, Cowboy (nearly two months old) and his daddy, Ace. Photo is care of Seven Diamonds Photography. How cool is it that you can put a baby out with a stallion and they are both totally fine and play together!?!? He is growing VERY fast! Love the blue eyes on both horses!
