So its been a month...

I guess I haven't been here in awhile. Sorry all. Between finishing English, starting and flying through Bio 12 (again!) and deciding to take on two more subjects a week before I head off to Sunnybrae, I guess I haven't had much time. Hopefully by next Friday Bio will be done, Earth Science will be almost done and Work Experience... well maybe my teacher will have got back to me by then and I can actually start it!
It will be wonderful to spend the summer on horseback. I am really looking forward to being the Head Wrangler at Sunnybrae this year. I'm sure it will be a big challenge; I have not had any time to prepare for my lessons at all! "So kids this is a horse... isn't it nice! This is how you get on... isn't that great! This is how you stay on... or not." I'm sure it will be great. If anyone happens to read this, please pray for people to send their horses out for the summer. I think my herd is only about 8 right now and my second Horsemanship Camp has 36 campers already... could be interesting with 5:1 kids to horse ratio!

This is my beautiful mare who recently decided that the grass was most definitely greener on the other side of her fence and jumped the gate to reach it. Liz, who was watching her, said that she walked up to the gate sniffed it and turned away. A moment later she came at it at a full gallop and gracefully flew over it. Fortunately Liz was able to catch her with out much ado and returned her to a pen with higher gate.

Hey Kels! Great picture. You are so purdy ;)
That's exciting that you get to spend the summer at Sunnybrae! I'll try to make it up there for a quick visit this summer and see the fantastic work you are doing!
