Also ... I would really like to do a photo session for a series of Mounted Police paintings ~ any ideas who to contact? Like I was thinking Metro Toronto MP.

And last but not least ~ great efforts on the ropic of Rollkur.

Tent pegging looks fun!!

Was tent pegging created to help develop the skills of pig hunters. I think I recall reading somewhere that pigs were hunted from horseback in India.
Love to hear of any news or events in Ontario, I think this might be fun to do with my retired polo pony.

At 4:05pm on January 10, 2010, Sit_the_Trot said…: Thank you for the friendship request Akaash. I'm looking up tent pegging right now! Please see my blogs on equitation and the rider moving with the horse. I'm a Feldenkrais practitioner and teach awareness and movement.

It warmed up here (interior of BC) to 0 degrees today - positively balmy! We had some windchill, but riding was a breeze (excuse the pun!) compared to earlier in the week, when it was -18 before we factored in the windchill. Given that my arena's open on three sides the windchill can be significant, but I put two electric infrared patio heaters in my tacking up stall, and they make a HUGE difference.

I suppose that given the heat at work for you right now the cold at the farm is a relief?? Keep the faith, Akaash, you're doing good work, and lots of us out there recognize it and are thankful for it.

At 6:31pm on November 24, 2009, Kinni P said…: I've always wanted to try tent pegging along with mounted archery. Unfortunately, the closest I've come was a not so pretty attempt at jousting with the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism). Yes, I am a nerd.

Every year we get a little bit better. The best part about being at the Royal was meeting so many people who have used our services successfully. It makes all the long hours burning my eyes in front of the computer screen worth while to hear about the great jobs (and the great employees) found using our site.
