I'm going!!

I'm going to Pagosa springs! First time ever!

Of course, it's to go to the Parelli Campus. I'm going to the Level 3/4 refining the 4 savvies course. I'm leasing a horse from a friend, he's super. He and she are super stars together. I'm honored to have him for 2 weeks. :)

Ekks! This is SUPERB!!

me and mine

So I vigorously wandered the not so far distance to the horse pen, saddle in one hand, halter and 22' line in the other. Purpose: have fun and get a little closer to that level 3.

As I haltered Aravis, I felt that heavy 22' rope and thought... "Hey, why not the feather-light rope?" So the rope I got.

She was PERFECT.

The feather-light line is a long, 22' savvy string. Everything was excellent. She did her sideways, circling, back up, weave pattern... all with excellence and without heaviness. All light. I was THRILLED. That kind of thrill that lasts to the present moment.

I rode her back and I remain thrilled, just as I've stated above

Moving on, moving on...

I've been encouraged to take a course this summer at the Parelli campus... so I am!

I'm taking the Level 3/4 Refining the four savvies course. I SO stoked! It's June 18-29

Aravis and I plan to audition for our Level 3 Online before we go... and pass... She is SO cool. Everyone agrees.

Trailer loading- Level 3
Circles- Level 3
Sideways- Level 3
Transistions- Level 3
Sideways riding- Level 2
Freestyle patterns- Level 2
Liberty- Level 2

SOO fun!

1 Peter 2:22-24

22  He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. 23  When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. 24  He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.


My favorite verse right now... the words, "by his wounds you have been healed" are running over and over in my head..

Home school seminar



If all goes as planned I will be giving a demo at the CHET-SE Home school seminar. 

Apparently, a few other horse people canceled and mom got an email asking if I would be interested in coming!

Here's the dilemma: Who do I take, Aravis or Cricket? 

A bit nervous but it will come naturally once I'm there...
