Happy birthday Isis
Isis would have been 19 today. Same birthday as my little sister.

Kasane graduates to the big ring
Today, Kasane had her first ride in the big ring. I warmed her up in the round pen as usual, and then, while on her, opened the gate and rode to the big ring. She hesitated when stepping out the gate, as it some magical line had been crossed. She walked to the ring walking…
