TRM Blog Hop: Before and After

This is a great blog hop for me to do, particularly because I've had Connor for five years this week.   I continue to be so incredibly grateful to his breeder and my trainer for making it possible for me to get him years before I thought I'd own my own horse.  He may not be the next Grand Prix superstar, but he's my partner in crime, my soul mate, and he's always down for our next adventure with pricked ears.

Loving how his pose hasn't changed much over the years, lol.

Also, I hear you on the "Oh wow your horse is old". I've actually had people tell me they felt sorry for Suzie that she was still being ridden at age 22...
