I'm only half awake but I want to go clean stalls.
Rather... I want the stalls to be cleaned, but I can't bring myself to do it :~D
Bay was locked in last night, forgot to open his bar back up when I got everyone in. Poor dude could barely walk when I finally wandered out to let them out after breakfast this morning. He stopped to pee while still in the doorway.

I only have a second, ya'll, I have a kid home throwing up but I just had to post this spectacular barrel racing wreck. It's a big file but give it time to download, it's worth it.
Great, and I'm glad you can give a home to one of Cav's, he was worried about that :~D
Heh.... I wasn't sure I wanted to see it! But really it's more of just a regular ole buckin' wreck :~D
What a couple of cuties!!
This last photo is a great Viking Kitty photo! Just Photoshop in whatever object or person in place of the stuffed kitty!!
It would make a good Viking Kitty photo, for someone with more photoshop skills than I have :~D
Ouch! Wonder what the heck set that horse off.
Rotten little cats! There is nothing cuter. How is big kitty taking this all in?
Looks like it might have been a young and fairly inexperienced horse by the way she was going... she was going pretty cautiously around the barrels, and I think the tension and energy was building up at each turn, so when she kicked her for the run to the 'finish' it just broke loose ;~D
Big kitty is still pretty uninterested! No fireworks from him yet.
Mine came back 75% mustang
You know this person Tuffy?
Heh... I've had it happen jumping, all momentum headed forward, and they hit the brakes at the last minute :~D
Could be sour, you're right... could be that the horse has begun resenting the final run.
I have a minute to respond, my little girl is still throwing up. She got a bad case of it, I'll tell ya.
No, I don't know that person. I just ran across that video when I was surfing.
One thing that I noticed in that video is the girl is trying to make herself look like a better rider than what she is. Even professional barrel racers hang on to the saddle horn, so as not to jostle the horse going around the barrels, or even worse, get left behind. That horse might not like the way she's bouncing around in the saddle going around the barrels. An old experience horse probably wouldn't care, a young, inexperienced horse, probably would.
One other thing, she's going to the first barrel on the wrong lead. As an ex-barrel racer, that wouldn't have been something I would have done but I barrel raced on an old national finals horse. "Wrong lead" wasn't in her vocabulary.

Scroll down to four year old horses and the first one listed is "Brooklyn Bar Beggar" and it has a barrel racing video. This is a professional in action and he's sure as heck hanging on to the saddle horn. And he goes to the first barrel on the correct lead.
Sorry bout the throw-uppin' kid :~\
Happy birthday:')
