Horses' Friday Post - Horses we have met and known at our old farm.

The obstacle/trail course:
Our neighbor's three horses watching horses and riders on our obstacle/trail course. The horse in foreground and his rider were practicing on the course.

Rider warming up her horse in the arena before heading out on the course.

Trail course riders would challenge their horses at The Big Log.

Some riders trained their horses in-hand to overcome obstacles.

This gal was leading her horse through The Pond.

Retired boarders:
We boarded horses for years. Retirees lived well. Here are four ~
This is Sonny ~


Charlie Brown was, I'll admit it, our favorite ~

Narjolijn (Narj) was once a Show Jumper ~

Mystic (short for Optimystic) on a frosty February morn ~
