We snapped some pictures yesterday too...we think some of our horses are soooo pretty...but we just don't seem to capture it on photo...
For example Pan Tau is amazing looking...yet in a picture...it just doesn't do him justice...
Ak tultuk is the same way, Edeelen was not photo genetic yesterday either...but Shirin well..here she is..

Ahli on the left, and Etoscha.

We made a video of Paelka yesterday. He is so fun to ride, light on the aids and capable...

Here is his video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGmvst-Mcnc&feature=youtu.be

At the last show a lady sat by the side painting...I walked over and I comented on how nice her painting was...and that the horse looked like a Teke...well...that's because it was!!! She had painted Kegas...I bought it of course...

Last week a car drove down our driveway just as I was going to fetch horses...
"We took one of your flyers by the mail box,  we are on vacation, can we please go for a ride?"
Oh oh...NO! I said! I have a full schedule today and students arriving at 10am...
Can we pet a horse? We miss them so much!
Ok, I said. So off we went to get the horses for the morning lessons and I showed them the foals...
Turns out they both have worked with horses extensively...so...I changed my plan...ok..come for a ride..
And this is how Alex and Cecil got to ride Akhal-Tekes...

Alex is riding Pan Tau, our stallion who is 18 this year. Alex works in a jumping stable and was impressed with his jump and his foals..and most of all his great personality!
Cicil rode Paelka, who goes barefoot on our rocky trails, and is smooth as silk to ride, and has a fabulous jump.
We jumped logs in the woods, and canters up hills and had the view over the water and islands...
