From the Road in Medford, OR
Hi Friends,
We are on vacation in Oregon today. Making a stop in Medford before jumping over the hill to Gold Beach tomorrow morning. Today we played around at the Family Fun Center here, playing Put Put Golf and swinging away in the batting cages. It was a blast and a great way to kick off the vacation.
We took a bunch of pictures today and you can follow our fun on our Picasa photo page here if you want.
We can't wait to get back on the road to Gold Beach in the morning and will Twitter and film the whole adventure as it unfolds.
Peace & Love,
Brenda and Don
... and Ashley Too!

Getting Away Again ...

Hi Friends,
We are on the road to Gold Beach, Oregon for a 4th of July type vacation.
Check back from time to time as we will brighten your day by telling you what a great time we are having. Okay maybe that is stretching the truth a bit, but we will be updating this site along the way. You may not be as thrilled as we think you will be .. but it gives us joy.
Peace & Love from the road!

Our First Trail Trials Event


Hi Friends,
We have been having so much fun with the horses this Spring and are really looking forward to Summer should it ever get here. Pete and Dually are out with us all the time and Lady is getting better feet every day, so it is just a matter of time until she is out with us too.
We did something we had never done before by entering the TB Friends Trail Trials at the Washoe Lake Equestrian Center. Both of us had spent some time looking at You Tube videos trying to get a idea of what we would be doing, and with so some feeling about what we would be able to do with our horses.
Brenda rode Dually and I rode Pete. We did not have to trailer the horses because the Trail Trials were so close. We got up early and fed, then rode the horses to the sign up area. After paying our entry fee, we got a map and instructions for each of the 10 different challenges.
I thought I would be able to do many of the trials because Pete is a pretty smart horse and he works well with me on the trails. Of course you have to ride the horse that shows up the day you are riding, and this day Pete was a bit un coopertive. We did a few of the trials really well, and then there were the others. Pete and I finished dead last ... but we had a great time and want to try it again. We will be playing some of the games that were in the Trail Trials so we can do better next time.
Brenda really didn't thing she and Dually were going to do well. Or maybe she was just throwing up a smoke screen in case she did poorly. In the end she was amazing, working really well with Dually and getting through even the toughest challenges with flying colors. Did I mention she got a 6th place in our class after all was said and done? Like I said she was amazing!
We have a bunch of pictures to share on our Picasa Photo page, just click here.
Can't wait to do this again, or maybe some other challenge that people and horses do together.
Happy Trails!
Don & Brenda

Sunday Horseback Riding Adventure
Hi Friends,
We took the horses out for some fun at the Washoe Lake Equestrian Park on Sunday. It was a blast, with warm sun and light breezes making it really comfortable. I took the video camera with me to see what we could capture on tape. Well one thing we found out is that it is really difficult to kep the camera steady when you are galloping along. Oh well, maybe we can get some better video next time.
