Geeze, it is about time I posted some pictures from camp.They are past due.
Ok, to start of the nice picture gallery- this is Vanessa, Me, and Madi we are known as the Corral Queens, and for a good reason too.
Vanessa is from Madison, WI and Madi is from Oberlin, Ohio.
Next, there is Spirit. Spirit is a 17 year old Arabian cross. Even though he is 17 his Arabian side gets to him and he is extremely high strung and spunky from time to time. Only staff and I are allowed to ride him, no other campers can ride him. He is my baby, and I love him to death. I took him out every day for a nice ride and before and after the ride he got an extensive grooming session.
Here is me on Spirit bare:
Then one day when I took Spirit out for a nice grooming session, I noticed all of these small round patches on his legs. I immediately told Heather (she and Chris run the Ranch program) and she told me to hose down his legs and wash it real good with iodine, so I did. When I got done I sprayed on some Furall, which is an antibacterial powder, and we contacted the vet. It was ringworm.
Then, since he was sick, he got EXTRA babying and love from me...not like he needed any more.
(The yellow is the Furall)
This horsey is Henry. Henry is a chestnut Barb, and he is a GIANT puppy dog. OMG- he is so sweet!!! He follows everyone around the corral, gives everyone nuzzles and kisses, and he is like a goat- he has to taste anything and everything- including my boot:
I was devastated to learn that the day after I was to return home he would be sold. I will miss him greatly, he brought a lot of joy and laughter to a lot of people.
