2011 Year in Review

[sprinklerized]

Even though it is already February of 2012, I am embarking on a review of 2011, since it was such a big year for me in so many ways and needs to be documented -- better late than never! I'll try to make the post somewhat chronological, but I'll be grouping some topics together that spanned the year, so as not to jump around too much

Dear Sarah, your photography continues to inspire me :) *one of these days I will come visit and I want to follow you around like a little intern and watch you work.

* of course, I've got to get my passport... and, ya know, save money so I can take the time off to come play haha

And I need to come back and follow YOU around at a show to learn all the tricks you picked up this past year!

Come play ponies soon! It's high time you visited me! :)

I love Cathedral Cove, Castlepoint and Pakiri Beach.

Pakiri is my escape place around here :)

Ooh well done for recognizing the landmarks! Three of my favourite places, for sure. :)

Holy Moly Epic!Post! Haha, I read it all though, so do I get a gold star?

I had no idea that Santana was so big - I guess he looks smaller when you are on him!

You get TWO gold stars! I like doing these reviews for my own records, but I'm glad people are taking the time to read everything. :)

When I first got Santana, I sticked him at 17hh, but since then I've measured him a few times at 16:3hh, so he must have been on his tip-toes that day. Or he's shrunk in his old age. :p He's 24 this year!! I make just about any horse look short, as I am 6ft/183cm. :)

Hey, your life is pretty exciting too missy! I would definitely love to visit sometime though -- it is -15C tonight. :( That's not even cold compared to Alberta standards, but BC is turning me into a softy!

HAHHA It's warmer in Alberta :P

That was just the overnight temp... it was warm and sunny during the day! But right now it's windy for the second time since I moved here... thanks for sending it my way!
