Temps are still lower than normal here in N. Illinois so not a lot of driving. Sundance Kid 45 mins Butch Cassidy 45 mins

Woohoo! Jeannie I am so happy for You! Our move to NC is on hold as we work through some health problems for my husband. I’m sure it’s exhausting and exhilarating both! As I’ve said before, things happen for a reason, and you were meant for this house. CONGRATS!

Jeannie are you still here on the forum? We’d like to hear from you! I have also sent you a private message here if you would like to reply.

Spring-like weather was here today (and maybe tomorrow also). I had a nice relaxing drive with the old fart. Sundance Kid 45 mins

I think of her often. But have not heard from her. I hope she’s living the dream!

Snow in the morning, melted by 11a.m. Beautiful sunshine. Sundance Kid 50 mins

I think we can all relate to the fluffy!

It’s so hard to tell from a photo. But this is what I’m thinking. Can you shorten your traces a bit more? In the first photo (moving) the tugs are pulling backwards, they should fall straight down. In the second and third photos, the tugs are straight but the traces are loose. Just a little...

Oh yes! I think you will find drivers are some of the nicest equestrians! I’m not certain if you would have to register because of insurance concerns, but everyone I’ve met has loved to talk about their equines!

Hi Scotty! Welcome! What we are talking about is an event called the National Drive. There is an edition in May called the Spring Fling and one in the fall just called the National Drive. It is held at the Hoosier Horse Park near Edinburgh, Indiana. It is a casual, social drive for equines of...

We always have fun at the National Drive! If you do come out without your horses, there is always a bunch of people to ride with. Us mini drivers are used to being solo, but many of the “biggies” would love to have company in their carriage. There is not as many extracurricular activities at...
