36 days until I get into a car with my Uncle, grandparents and mom and head off to BC for my cousin’s wedding. I leave Carman on September 5th, and a week after that I fly from Kelowna, BC after celebrating my 19th birthday with my grand-parents, to Vancouver- where I spend 8 hours hanging…

Love this article
http://horsejunkiesunited.com/category/rider-fitness-2/ The only thing I would do differently on this is take out the running and replace it with biking. Running is exceptionally hard on your body, and not in a good way. Biking also imitates riding and requires you to use balance the same way you would when you’re holding a two point or…
Oh Deer
Got back into biking and strength stuff tonight, and this was my view! This was about 6 miles into my 8 mile ride on gravel roads. Here are some other shots I took while biking!

Build-A-Horse
Day three went very well! We started off the day with an Adult Amateur Medal equitation class. My course was all right, a little messy though.

Day 1 and 2 at Beach
