We're still enjoying a little too much ice and frozen ground to make me feel totally comfortable heading out on a ride. The majprity of our snow has melted, but in the shady areas it's still intact and icy (ie all the trails I ride!) I know lots of you readers are braver than me about such things, but this seriously only happens for a few days every winter here and I usually just opt to give the ponies a mini break and play it safe.
So, instead of a ride, yesterday Ginger enjoyed a spa day. Here's a few cute pics:

Weird iPhone rather than my grooming made her glow, but I like it |

This is the suspicious look. I was talking to her and I guess she didn't like what I had to say |

Making progress with that tail! |

And mane...the sweet itch is gone, thank goodness and the hair is growing back |

My favorite one from yesterday. Love her winter beard ha ha |
We're supposed to be back to warmer temps tomorrow, which is good because I have a lesson!
Love her sweet face!
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks!
DeleteShe is adorable, I too play it safe when risk of ice, snow & slippage. Not worth the stress & worry in my book.
ReplyDeleteSpa days & photo ops are totes legit horsing activities ☺
When we were kids a friend had a bad fall that way, I'm scared of the ice for good I think. Spa days are my favorite :)
Deletethat forelock flip - so stinkin cute! and re: icy conditions, best to wait until allll the footing is clear, otherwise you risk taking a spill when you least expect it (ask me how i know lol)
ReplyDeleteHope you were ok! She has a lovely forelock...the rest of the mane is a challenge though!
DeleteI think it's a post-grooming glow! :)
ReplyDeleteEven better - that pic is pre grooming :) She's just shiny and happy!
DeleteMy pony has a horrible forelock...we envy her lovely one!
ReplyDeleteBridget has a terrible one too, so I feel your pain!
DeleteMmm... Spa day.
ReplyDeleteI am so not fussy about my own appearance, and don't think I've ever set foot in a spa, yet I get anxious if my horses don't get at least one 'spa day' a week lol
