I’m in the middle of WI, and we’re covered in a nice thick blanket of snow. I don’t really ride as much in the winter, but it’s getting to the point where it’s warming up. The other day I was brushing the horses and it was warm enough for me to peel off my jacket even with the snow. Plus, my horses are starting to shed.
THAT is how I know spring is coming!

I can’t wait until spring! The day when the Minnesota winter is gone is a day of rejoicing!

Hard to believe that spring is just around the corner. Doesn’t change my riding amount. Just makes it more pleasant!

Here in PA, we have had about 7 snows, and never enough to cover the corn stubble in the fields. We’ve had skating once. I’ve been riding and doing groundwork w/ my two horses regularly over the winter, sometimes 5 times a week! I don’t think horses should get “put out to pasture” all winter long, I think they should keep getting used unless its outrageously cold or the owner’s crazy busy. I’ve gone on a 3 hour ride this winter as well. I don’t mind the cold too much, but I’m really looking forward to summer!!! and swimming the horses in the creek…..
and can’t wait to start getting tan 🙂
