Merry Christmas Eve from Vermont !




What better way to tire a young 7 year old out so he'll go to sleep tonight than trot out in the cart on a
frigid day ?  Zoe came with us too -- she's just out of the cart snapping a departure photo. We are spiffed up and hot to trot says Nimue.





The roads are icy in spots but we try to stay in the most sanded tracks.






sorry to be tedious with double takes here -- but the way the star is catching the sunray --

I loved the photo :)   So posted two taken one right after the other.


As we trotted along I had the idea to visit my Number 1 son at work as they are having a Christmas Open House today with Chili ~ that sounds nice on a cold day after driving around on the back roads.



So after we were done with the back roads loop  - we trotted past the house.. down the road -- scooted down the highway to Mitchell's Auto Body.









Had a lovely holiday visit -- time to head home and wait for the man in the red suit.  Nimue is fast up the highway home -- she's thinking about that big bale of second cut she saw me getting out for a holiday treat.






Here are a few snippets of our trip this afternoon-- which includes our Holiday Greeting ~


There's still plenty of time to get in more riding for 2010 :) I have to sneak in that Nimue is on the sales list - She's wrapped and ready to go !


Enjoy ~

  3. Nimue looks so Christmas-y and dressy, and your video Christmas card was the best! Great job, although I'd like to hear you sing...
    Boy, I just love how Nimue moves right along! Merry Christmas Betsy and Zoe, and thanks for all the adventure you bring to the RAC!
