Come a long ways


Its been a while since anyone posted here so I will give a quick update. We have been getting out lately a few times a week. Its still hard to get through work, class and the kids, and what not and still get out every day we want. Our trainer has been very accomidating to our schedules so that helps. Howard had a surgery a few months back that put him out of the training lineup. Apparently he had some bone that broke around his ear and when they removed it it caused some nerve damage. He couldnt swallow and was put on a special diet. That was probably 5 or 6 months ago. Well the breeding manager, we will call "Spanky" didn't like his demeanor 2 weeks ago, Apparently Howard was a little tired of the special diet and he tried to take a bite of Spanky, I can't really blame Howard one bit on this ;). So it was decided that he goes back to work. We had some good rides the last 2 weeks. Chicklet and Sunshine are getting along very well lately too. Fencing is going nice and she is working on lead changes. I am doing turn arounds and started lead change work with the tank which was interesting to say the least. People are starting to get excited for show season and its awesome after a long winter to see the smiles on all the people. Lets see what the next month or 2 brings :)
