Well the riding ring currently resembles a dirty ice-skating rink, so there wasn't a whole lot in the way of physical exercise we could do today. Instead we worked on very basic groundwork (i.e. stopping and standing, moving away from pressure, bending, walking over poles). I won't bore you all with the details of what to me was very exciting stuff, but rather I'll give you a little glimpse into JJs world!

| Sexy Man! |
As most of you probably know JJ spends his time between being inside and stall and having access to a small outdoor pen. Tonight is actually the first night he will have the door open and thus access to the pen all night(!!). Anyway, JJ has not been turned out with other horses yet but he has some very friendly neighbors - goats!
 |
Well Hello Romeo! (And yes, JJ
is responsible for that broken fence). |
 |
| JJ the baby, bullied by a goat. |
Romeo and Molly are JJs closest neighbors, and while Molly seems a little too shy to approach JJ in his pen, Romeo is always hanging over the fence and looking to share JJs snacks. JJ doesn't seem to realize that Romeo is just a little goat, OR that Romeo is separated by a fence. JJ is actually very submissive to Romeo - poor baby!

Well there's your dose of cuteness for the day! Here's to melting snow this week!
