Point Reyes Camping






Every year I get out to Point Reyes and do a bit of camping. This year I went in style with a padded halter. The idea is that it keeps my head for chaffing while hanging out on the high-line. A few years ago my buddy General got a nasty chaffed head on the high-line, so he warned me and we came prepared.






We took a long walk in the woods, past lakes, and all the way to the cliffs high above the ocean.

TV Gig

Every once and a while I'm called on to do some bit parts on TV shows. I've established myself as a bit of a hoof model in the broadcast scene. I trade shots of my bare naked hoof for carrots or grain. My latest gig was shot last Saturday at Shamrock ranch. I modeled some trendy new foot wear for horses, and was background fodder for an interview with my hoof care professional, Bonnie Hellevig.

Check out the video.

Camping and Jumping

I took a little trip up to Lone Tree Farm near the town of Waterford, just outside of Modesto. The weather was nice and the stars were out in full force. We ate hay under the moonlight and told scary pony stories by the campfire. I met some pretty sweet mares, and ran through a pond a bunch of times.
Jumped some things that were sitting in a field.

Would been a great weekend if this dude wasn't sitting on my back the whole time.

I'm totally a hat guy

Ever since I got this new hat, all the mares in the field are nickering at me.

I like to graze in it.


I like to eat my grain in it.


I like to gaze upon the land with it.

New Winter Outfit



Now that I'm shaved I can run all over the place and not get all sweaty. But when night falls and temperatures drop I get really of cold. It's like being naked out in a field on a cold night, imagine that? can you imagine how it makes a young pony feel? really cold. There is a solution, and a pretty stylish one. I nice warm 200 gram plaid rug. it keeps me warm all night. Just get it off me when the sun comes out!

Shower and a Shave

I was getting really hot under the saddle. My winter coat was coming in
and I was sweating buckets. I filed a complaint with my owner, citing
the fact that I had been forced to gallop around with excessive fur. My
prayers were answered and I was given a much needed shave. Only
downside was that it required a thorough cleansing, something I'm not to fond of.
