Friday's Picture of the Day

" No Description... I'll let you decide. "

Update :-D

20 or so of us got together Saturday to go skiing at Sugar Mountain. In the end we ended up going a little higher up the mountain to Beech Mountain Ski Resort. We spent the entire day making the most of the snow and had a great time!! I am sad to say I didn't get any pictures of the skiing part of our day. I did however, manage to get some pictures of the ride up the mountain... We had so much fun!



Mary Lynn spots some snow!



Me... And in case you're wondering, Mom says I have a lazy left eye.

A random moment in the backseat... I do believe it was an "Air Camera"

Alex hanging from the roof... JK The picture was taken this way over my headrest and I just decided to leave it this way.

Jacob enjoying the comfy seats in the van... lol

Hi all! I will probably be doing a Special post on Sugar Mountain Ski Resort sometime in the next few days as we're taking the day tomorrow and going out for a ski trip.

Monday's Picture of the Day

What: Calob giving hugs
Where: Latta Equestrian Center in Huntersville
How it happened: Betwixt mucking out stalls and filling up water buckets, LEC volunteer, Calob, found the opportunity to give one of his favorite horses a hug. He laid his head over the horse's back and said, "I could stay here all day!"

Saturday's Picture of the Day

A little late but it's here. No editing...


What: My quarter horse, Buddy
Where: The barn he is staying at for the time being.
How it happened: He was watching a stray cat I think and struck an awesome pose in the process.

Whoh...

Well, obviously, I've been getting very behind with my "Picture of the days" . I think I'm going to take a break for a bit so I won't be posting POTD's quite so often. Maybe once or twice a week.

Just keeping you updated! Have a nice week. :-)

Special: Kerr Mill Pictures

Sorry guys! I managed to get the pictures on here but I haven't had time to edit any of them. So what you see is what you get. Straight out of the camera. :-) Have A Nice Day (HAND) everyone!

Our backyard... Enough said.

Buddy's old pasture... I pointed out the trunks of all three trees that fell with red dots.

Tuesday's Picture of the Day

What: A pinecone in the pond
Where: The pond at Murray's Mill, NC
How it happened: Every good photographer cheats somewhere along the line. I set up for this picture and threw the pinecone into the pond which created the neat little bubble in the corner.

(I didn't take the time to watermark this picture but it is copyrighted just the same)

Monday's Picture of the Day

What: Drambuie AKA Buie


Where: The dressage arena at RHD


How it happened: This is Buie ,a 3 yr old Hanoverian gelding in the early stages of dressage training.

Saturday's Special Post 1/3/09

Royal Son -- AKA Raider showing his moves. These pictures were taken of Raider at his first time under saddle. He accepted the saddle so well that Racheal decided to lunge him a bit. What's the big deal? Raider has only been lunged about 3 times that I can recall. Maybe more but I wasn't there. So considering this, he did an incredible job in the round pen!

Getting the hang of it... "Look! I can do this!"

Re-adjusting the bit that he gummed at the whole time. "But Mooooom! It's my new toy!"

"I spy a skinny girl with a camera who won't mind her own business..."

The joys of training... "Look mom! I've got it now-- I've got the moves! Check this out--and this!"

Waiting for his next command. "I'm all ears!"

Thoughtful moment between horse and owner.... Ever wonder what horses think? I bet he's going, "So mom, how did I do? Did I do good? I did good didn't I? Yeah I did. I know I did!"

And owner's thoughts? Here's a flashback>
