Judy Judy Judy

Following your passion always allows you to meet new people who share the same interest.  I have been very fortunate in this area - b/c I meant Judy.   She also volunteers @ a hippo therapy facility & is  very fun to be around.

                             Here she is meeting the Buddha for the first time :)

I kept reminding her to appreciate this gentle giant as she groomed him & I tacked him up for her to ride.  I then said DO NOT let his lunging technique dissuade you from riding :)

Well, her eyes about popped out of her head when she witnessed his bucking & rearing plus flying thru the air while I had the other end of the lunge line !!!!!   She said she was ready to hi-tail it out of Wisconsin & forget this riding business :))    This is exactly why I let people fall in love w/ Bud in the barn - warn them on the way to the tract.  It is just what he does EVERY Saturday :))

                                    As you can see - they got along just fine.....

                                            And w/ Tia as well.........

                                     She came a LONG way that morning :))

                    Even Wilbur got in on the act  - love that all ears are up!!!

Texas or Bust.....

My last time to ride w/ Kayla has come b/c  her family is moving to Texas next week.  What a very fun &  sad  day - glad JB was there to lighten things up :)

Kayla I miss you more than you know & will never forget you - don't worry @ Black Jack - I have his back..........literally :))

JB Returns

                      I was very happy that my sister Joan wanted to go w/ me to the barn   :)

                     She FINALLY  got to meet the man of the hour - Lil O.

                                       That gent attracts woman of all ages :))

                                               The Buddha was in shock !!

   JB on the Buddha - it took a long time to reunite them but they did fine.

                    Too funny - she & Patty were actually discussing shoes!!

                                      Unbelievable - all 3 sets of ears up !!!!

                                             She even got on Miss Tia!

                                            A fun photo to end the day :))
