UPDATE 20 JUNE 2019

Just a short update.  Been pretty busy around here.  Started irrigating the other day and that means changing water everyday (once or twice a day) until next fall.  Connie has been doing quite a bit of riding and I have even ridden her new horse a few times.  She is a very calm horse and does not get to excited about anything.  Her one draw back is that she does not know how to neck rein.  I think all these jumpers just use the plow horse method of turning their horses.  But we have been working on  that and she is quick learner.

Had quite a spring storm around here today. Lots of rain, hail and some lightning.  We needed the moisture especially in the mountains.  Always helps to keep the fire danger down after a good rain like that.

I complain about having to irrigate but you can't complain on the view I have to look at when I am doing it!


Our red and yellow roses did pretty good this year even after being cut back.


Today's hail storm.


Connie and one of her jumping pals out for a ride at our place.  That is a big horse she is riding.

More of the hail storm.
