Another week in the books

Busy week and a leisure weekend. Harness race season is at it's most hectic right now. We're represented at 1-3 tracks almost daily, meaning somebody's gotta clean up the mess the "other" photographers make and deliver pics and framed prints etc to customers. So we have our hands full here at the office. Our mare missed the filly derby placing 4th in her heat, top three advanced. She raced as well as she has though and had some traffic problems on the backstretch and last turn giving her to much ground to make up to catch the top three. Just aswell maybee as she might've been in over her head in the finals. Easier pickings in other races for her...

Annelie and Ida went up to grammy's for a visit over the weekend. Ida got a new cousin last week and they were due for a visit. Actually she got three new cousins as my sister Sandra, living in Australia, gave birth to twins a couple of day's ago!

Brady and I have been busy aswell. He's the same old horse as alway's. Pretty solid but has day's where he just don't wanna play. I've gotta learn to stop getting in a fight with him and go do something else on those occasions to save the frustration. It will get better when we get some cows here in a month or so as everything has a clear purpose for him when we're working cows. Be it roping or general cowwork, he sure takes to it a whole lot better than most other things we do.

I´ll get back to working Cat here in a week or two, but in the meantime I´ve been asked to help our friend Eva with an arabian mare that's hasn't been messed with much. She's a 5year old with very limited exposure so that'll be interesting. It's the fourth one I'll start this year, funny as we sorta decided to just mess with our own horses from now on after the move to Snösvad!
