Max and Tango go on a Field Trip

Today, Jessika and I took Max and Tango to Fallbrook Riders Field for a change of pace. What a great place to ride, even in 96 degree heat!! Full size dressage arena, super-size stadium jumping arena and a cross-country course with every imaginable obstacle to maneuver up, over or around! A local field for local riders! We are very lucky to have it!

Anyhow, Tango was not on his best behavior. But Max, who just turned 20 yrs., and we've been working together as a team for 8 years, is really coming into his own. He is a fine horse, with his one (major) fault being he doesn't have great brakes! We keep working on it, but he just doesn't like to stop.......

At this time in his life, he has decided he likes to jump! So we're starting out together in a small way, jumping! I'm lovin' it, he's lovin' it!

But Tango, the young whippersnapper, has a ways to go!!
