Spring is in the air...Well Almost.

Spring is in the Air....Well Almost

 It's been a long weekend and just now starting to feel normal again. Cold weather and clinics really drain the life out of me! But even though the clinic this past weekend was faced with snow and chilly temperatures, the enthusiasm for learning left the arena feeling warm and cozy! 

This was the first time that I was teaching at Debbie Stockers' lovely farm in Metcalfe. It was a wonderful group of diverse Western breeds, including Paints, Quarter Horses and a Canadian. 

Thanks so much to Cortney Little for organizing the clinic.

I couldn't resist adding this photo of my Arab/Trakehner gelding Garcon. The arena was freshly worked up and the sunshine through the new lexan panels made such a neat photo. 

Last but not least, the Harmony Western Dressage Saddle. It's being shipped up from the USA and should be here soon. I can't wait to start riding in it. It looks fantastic. Here is a video of the Harmony and why it's so different to traditional Western Saddles.
