My First Ride on Rebel....

All kinds of activity this morning.

Karen worked on Maggie and we eventually tacked up Rebel.

 It was so cool I had to wear a long sleeved shirt and a sweatshirt...

 I loved it!

Little Wonder thought it was pretty windy.

                                   

While Karen finished up with Maggie, I dragged the indoor and then brought Rebel in the grooming room (his first time).  Until now, I was grooming him in his stall each morning.  He made some noise, wondering where the girls were, but was very well behaved.  My saddle and bridle fit him perfectly!

 When we got to the indoor I walked him around for awhile, then Karen got on him.

I only rode him for about 20 minutes and could not have asked for more.  He was even fine on the buckle.  So lucky to have him here.

We were finished by 10am.

 I got cleaned up and went down to the Peddlers Market at the Morgan Manning House.

There were 40 vendors this year and a steady stream of people.

Everyone was thrilled to have cooler temperatures.....at last.

 Carina was there with the kids.

 Mary (my partner in crime) had Nori out for a walk.  My first opportunity to meet her.

 What a sweet girl.

 Of course Topper was there taking pictures of me taking pictures of him.

(he just sent me this photo)

And Jenny was there for awhile.

Today was Cooper's 13th birthday. 

The pups and I stopped down at the house to drop off a present.

He and his pals (party) were in a nearby park playing baseball.

 Gary worked on our front porch all day.  He started off scraping the ceiling and ended up making repairs on the roof.

We ate dinner before I went out to do chores.

Grilled chicken, grilled corn and coleslaw made with green cabbage from our garden.

 Tonight Maggie was walking so much better.

 Night all.
