Before I continue. I could not post all of the pictures I have. It seems that the picture links on some of the pictures go to an ad for Club Photo prints instead of my pictures. This is the first time that has happened and I have registered a complaint with Club Photo about it. If this does not clear up I will quit club photo, which will probably erase many of hte pics I have posted lately.
Cheryl was thrilled to be reunited with Sugar Boy.
It appeared that Sugar Boy was happy to see her too.
The vet says there is nothing that can be done to restore his sight, but surprisingly it has improved some now that he is getting proper care and food.
They have made a nice paddock with lots of shade for him to spend the day. At night he is housed inside a huge stable.
My neice has been training Sugar Boy and he is now a tractible riding horse. Under her watchful eye, Cheryl got to ride Sugar Boy. I got several pictures of her riding, but I won't bother you with them all. Cheryl did very well considering the last time she rode a horse it lay down on her.
Next I got to ride him. I did very well for not having been on a horse in well over a decade.
I was not prepared for the next rider. It seems someone else was begging off from riding, so Maw Maw decided to show them it was easy. Of course we didn't let her really ride, but led her around by the halter for a short distance. 99 year old ladies do not need to risk falling off of horses. We do have to admit that she had much more exprience with them than anyone else there as she grew up with horses.
Not all were interested in the horses. Some prefered to expand their literary horizons.
Then the two most involved with Sugar Boy proceeded to show us how it was done. First Nathan, who refers to Sugar Boy as Money Pit rode around the paddock.
Then his daughter proceeded to show him by taking Sugar Boy for a real ride out of the paddock and up the road to the fields.
She makes a much prettier picture on the horse than her dad.
When she returned, my sister finally got over her reticence at getting on the horse.
Now to make this all dog related, here is a pic of two of their dogs Missy and Puppy.
And here I wanted to post a picture of Skeeter with Puppy. for those wondering Puppy is called Puppy for the same reason Mr. Dawg is called Mr. Dawg. Also the pics of thier birds will not post. ..
Finally here is Ivory and Pea Pod trying to play in the tall grass in our Back Yard. if it doesn't rain tonight, I will finally get to cut the grass sometime tomorrow.
