Comment! Zeus and Sammee




Not sure if I have ever done a shout out to John Albano who is the tech friend/wizard who has helped me set up the website, do our on line marketing, google adwords, etc.... And as of NOW you can comment on the blog!




You have to have a google account but it is pretty easy to achieve. Also, I will moderate all comments. So, content will continue to be appropriate for the multiple ages that visit our site. And, there may be a delay when I am traveling for your posts to go up.




We have welcomed a new horse to the barn! Zeus is an almost five year old gelding half quarter horse, half paint. He is Elizabeth's birthday present -- she turns 11 this week. He is certainly a little green, but really friendly and good natured. Karrie did his first ever jumping today. He was good -- not a natural, but went over everything she pointed him at. His worst habit is backing up so Elizabeth needs to be really firm with him and not let him do that at all. He also can't canter from a walk, so she will have to work him into a canter from a trot. He won't be a school horse for a while and only Karrie will jump him for now ... but hopefully he will develop like Jay and Hercules into a solid horse for the intermediate riders. Here he is making friends with Buck in the pasture. He has the white spot on his neck. Cute, huh?




Sammee (the cat) is obviously the perfect Halloween cat!




Going to post some new programs coming up .... stay tuned!

  3. Today My two daughters and my Grandaughter Ada from Vermont visited Cobble Hill Farm to see Patty. The big surprise was Chrissy brought Dixie in and let Ada ,who is 2 years old,pet, brush and walk Dixie . Elizabeth then rode Dixie around the arena for us.
    We took a lot of pictures and had a special time with the girls.Even buddy came to greet us. Chrissy and Elizabeth were the greatest and were the perfect fit for our visit. Thanks Chrissy and Elizabeth for helping us visit the farm .
