Driving Obstacles

what a busy month... Zoe and I have managed to take quite a few horses through the course - and I have a tremendous back log of photo's and video ! Maybe I'll continue to post a few during the coming weeks. We've had a lot of fun -- and I am thrilled to see so many RAC'ers out showing so much enthusiasm for the challenge month :)

Today, we had a nice trot out with Nimue in the cart.. our first since the Christmas season. (other than our sleigh rides she has not been hitched since then). Then we took turns taking Miss Nimue through and past the obstacles. 




This afternoon the SUN actually came out strong... what a sight ! This is the lawn version of the streamer alley -- but it's more of a tarp curtain.






 I put up a little driving version of the tarp alley and my grand-son Dominic took the lines .. he is not an RAC'er yet -- but maybe soon ! he likes the cart thing.. not so keen on riding yet.






I made a quick remodel to the teeter-totter just for her... so here is just a little teaser of our driving challenge course !! :) We had a lot of fun today -- the sun surely helped boost our spirits too --  I'll share some more photo's and video of Nimue meeting her obstacles .. but for now..  here we go ... very first time for Miss Nimue over the teeter-totter.We did not expect that little hop mid-way ... made for a nice giggle.

  5. Yes, you make driving look so fun! Nimue is beautiful and talented, and certainly not afraid of much of anything at all!
