Rhoda was more than willing to help with a video of Jewel's filly Rhiannon. We had someone wanting to see her movement. Rhiannon got the beauty treatment first getting a good groom and a learning lesson on picking up feet when asked. This filly has tremendous amount of feather, more than most purebred Friesians.
Check out the video below of Rhiannon. Rhoda has her leading over jumps and up on the bridge.
After Rhiannon was put away Rhoda pulled out Evan for a schooling session.
Could this boy get any more impressive? Rebekah and Karin came over to ride with Rhoda on the trails.
Jenis is in season and amazing Evan was the perfect gentleman on the trials with those 2 mares. We are so impressed that he can behave on a trail ride with a mare heavily in season.
After the ride Rhoda had Evan cover Jenis. We wanted to use Killian but Killian is afraid of Jenis and wouldn't even try. Evan covered Hadassah this morning so he got double duty today.
Not long after that Stephanie arrived to pick up Israel.
Our guest were expected at 6:30 pm so Mark got going on the grill and the steaks turned out just about perfect. Doris brought creamed peas, Gail brought a wonderful salad, Rich brought 2 different kinds of sweet breads, grilled onions, and wild rice rounded out the meal. For dessert we had New York style cheese cake with fresh strawberries.
After the meal our 12 headed over to Spark and Rhonda's to join their potluck of 10. The guitars were brought out and singing started. It was a very nice evening.
Rachel hosted all the others with a camp fire over in her meadow. Bill, Bethany's fiancee arrived from Bluffton to join in the fun.
Mike and Diane are staying at the cottage at Middle Grove. The weather was just about perfect.
