The dust following a tantrum by Nileist over not getting a carrot after he did not come in for a tail conditioning. Hackleton did come in for a tail conditioning and got his carrot.

Pie grinned and beared wearing my Chaskit only because DV told her to. It fit her beautifully, but Pie, as we now know, is a total nudie who dislikes blankets when she has her way.

I bequeathed my Centaur blanket to DV who really loved it. It fit her perfectly and was so worn in, the fabric was so soft. Nileist wears it at times now, though he's a nudie too.

Smoothie very much loved his blanket and would seek it out. Surfer wears it from time to time, though Surfer is mostly a nudie. K loves the sharing of energy there.

Pixie, because of her age, had to wear several different weight sheets and blankets in the desert. She'll seek a blanket or sheet out when she needs one. So far, she has not needed one on the central coast and her coat has come in so woolly, she radiates heat.

Hackleton looks so incredible in anything, including his blanket. He wore one at times in the desert. As hot as the desert gets in the summer, it can spike cold in the winter. One year it actually was 19 degrees one morning. The central coast is more temperate and he does not wear a blanket there.

It's that time of year when the "To Blanket or Not To Blanket" decision is made. Blanketing is such a horsonal thing depending on the weather where a particular horse is, so there's actually no set rules until you understand the weather where the horse is. Each horse has an opinion on blanketing.

K is the Queen of recycling in the best way possible! I bequeathed my favorite striped satiny cooler to my God son, Nileist. This was given to me over 10 years ago by one of our followers! Nileist has now grown up in it! And my energy prevails! Mwa ha ha...

If Billy had ever had a blanket on before, it’s been a very long time, but he was a rockstar once he realized it was not a murder blanket.
And he was out trotting around proudly after it was secured.
I will get photos of him being dapper once I’ve warmed up

Pixie's 29th birthday is coming up January 4. Our #heavymetalmare 's "Gotcha Day" became her birthday since we're unsure of her actual birthday.

Pie is a loud diva in the arena at times, so K lets her opine and waits patiently to resume the workout.

Pie has learned that diva behavior doesn't get her confections. She's going through a renaissance now that her body fitness has changed for the better since she got herself hung up on the pasture gate. Go figure.

A fundraising update: We're slowly getting there. We've received an additional monthly donation of $100 per month. We're now only $2K in monthly donations away from making up loss of donors due to job loss, medical bills and the LA fires. 20 at $100, 40 at $50, or 80 at $25 per month gets it done.

Love this shot after one of Smoothie's first rides! K was ecstatic and showed it redhead style. Smoothie was like, but of course I'm good...

Surfer has been doing incredible work on his mind this year. He's willing to entertain that he and K can be a team while riding, That it's not a fight or grinning and bearing it. He feels heard and respected. Makes a difference.

Once Smoothie's contracted tendons were treated, he developed his own power stance that took the small hoof into account and allowed him solid balance! Love his expression here!

Me at 27 with my bougainvillea in the sun. All thoroughbreds bred to race deserve lifetime retirement and care like I got... Horse by horse until a system is put in place to assure none of them ever "end up" in a dangerous situation.
