Bear with us
Yesterday evening my daughter, home from college for the weekend, decided to take Hero out for a quick ride. A while later I heard my husband get a call. His voice raised. "a BEAR?!" . . . ""Well, get back to the barn!"
um-what?
When she returned she told us that Lady, running a little ahead of the horse as she usually does, startled two black bears. She instantly deployed guarddog.exe, and barked furiously at them. K noticed that Lady's barking seemed a lot more than usual for a squirrel, and halted Hero to look around carefully. On of the bears had climbed a tree to get away from Lady (50ish lb, 22kg, WAY more bark than bite). The other ran off. K and Hero froze in place, and the bear decided to come back down the tree. Once it hit the ground, Lady got guarddog.exe confused with herdinginstinct.exe, and started chivvying the bear TOWARD K and Hero. There they stood, in the path of a running black bear, with a screaming hellhound right behind.
Hero, whose exploits have included the Plastic Bag Panic of 2018 and the Frog Freak-out of 2021, was nonchalant and unbothered by the bear. (K much more bothered). The bear turned sharply to get the hell away from everyone, and K was able to disengage Lady from pursuit. They returned home very quickly. Thank heavens Nutmeg wasn't with them.
It is always some damned thing around here.

MERRY CHARLES WILSON 452092
CH. H. 1945. Stripe with one hind sock.
SIRE: Sir Charles Allen 350097, by Ed. Nolin F-8, by Merry Boy 350189
DAM: Lovely Night 391339, by Wilson's Allen 350075, by Roan Allen F-38.
2nd DAM: Nell Allen 360103, by Merry Boy 350189, by Roan Allen F-38. 
MERRY CHARLES WILSON —  This elegantly conformed young stallion was recently purchased at the Dixie Jubilee, Baton Rouge, La., after having won the All-Age stallion division over a large field of top contenders. He is considered to be the finest young Walking stallion ever to arrive on the Pacific Coast.— Making his first show on the Pacific Coast at Indio, he won the stallion championship after winning the class for stallions three years and over. Appearing a week later at Imperial he won the open class under saddle.

Some amazing news we have to share! Noble Touch HW, our champion show jumper Hanoverian mare is now confirmed in foal to our Hanoverian stallion Machiavelli HW!
Tumblr media
And more great news! Our champion Western Pleasure TWH mare Epiphany HW is also confirmed in foal to our other resident stallion, Soul Fire HW. His show record is incredible in all western disciplines and even endurance.
We are so ecstatic and eager to see what both these pairs produce. Noble Touch HW is a maiden mare, and mine - Airlia’s - heart horse!

How to Hide a Horse
Tabby cats are camo experts. Even Lady can be quite hard to see when the fall leaves are down.

This guy? Does not look like he knows a darned thing about camo.
Tumblr media
However, just after a light snow, he briefly becomes one with the forest.
