Well done, Claire! Extra treats for Smokey as well. What kind of saddle are you using? It looks unusual to me...
Wildside, thankyou, I was pleased!
Dora, thanks, I'm having herbal tea here as its late and coffee keeps me awake!
Francesa, thinking of you!
Michael, he had two extra apples.. I used my kayak money to buy a treeless Barefoot Cheyenne, so far it fits everything I ride and its sooooooooooooo comfy.
Wow, VERY cool! Love the flowers and that is great about your horseback skills also!
Hi Claire, So you did sell your kayak after all? Mine is living awkwardly under the house; have not pulled it out this year as yet... Sounds like you are staying plenty busy without it, but do you miss it?
we'd only be surprised if you DIDN'T win, Claire. your photos are always winners. the only survivors here, after regular frost for several weeks, are the Rudbeckia.
Lowa, I'm enjoying riding Smokey and learnin new ways of doing things.
Wildsie, my kayak is gone, yes. there is a small backup needing some work to be useable but my shoulder is still giving way so thats it for while yet.
GF, blushing with all the compliments. we haven't had frost yet but maybe soon, really cold this morning.
Way to go, Claire!! I can see why those photos won prizes, they are beautiful!! I love the photo of you and Smokey.

I'm glad to see you won prizes for your wonderful close-ups - well deserved. And prize money...that's great!!
Good progress on the Quantum Savvy program too. It's always nice to see you on a horse. Smokey is a sweet one :)
Fun catching up with you this morning, Claire!
