I too am waiting for the  snow to go and the ground to dry up so we can start driving and rding again.  The ice is so bad under the snow that we couldn't get the sleigh out if we tried. The ruts and bumps where the gground melts and then freezes amkes for very treacherous footing for horses and humans!

But.... Spring is comming. I know that because the hair is coming out of the horses by the handful!!

I agree Rose...come on spring!! Its a chore just getting horses into a paddock with all this ice. Oh an indoor arena now wouldnt that be sweet!!

Well I don,t know about everyone else but I and my girls (horses) are sick of the snow. If it isn't the snow hindering any kind of riding or training it's the ice under the snow. It seems like we just get a melt down and then it freezes all the slush. I'm nots so lucky as to have an arena like some people and am still looking for a trailer. Come on SPRING.

I can't edit my post below but it is a picture of my Canadian, Hidden Meadows Neirin Scooter, just cantering along. He has a canter that is like sitting on a big fluffy pillow.  That picture was taken Oct 30 and now he continues to improve.  All of his gaits are great and they continue to improve.  This is good for my ageing back!  A beginner could sit  his trot.
