The Involuntary Riding Hiatus

...its not recommended.

As I'm sure most of you have heard, Mother Nature decided to dump three feet of snow on the Northeast two weeks ago. My ring is still under all of that snow which has since turned to rock solid ice that no plow anywhere would be able to push through.We also have managed to shovel out the trailer in case of emergency but getting it back in would prove to be troublesome so trailering out to my trainer's indoor is not an option either.

Ben seems to be handling his vacation much better than I am. He was going so amazingly well right before the storm hit and its driving me crazy that I don't get to continue working on that. On the bright side, he's been getting a thirty minute groom every day and he looks super shiny and fantastic.

I've also been watching a lot of videos and reading a lot of books, mostly on dressage, but also on a variety of other horsey topics. Might as well make the most of all of this extra time I wish I didn't have!
