City Boy Visits the Farm

I wish I could say that said boy was mine, but sadly he belongs to one of my best friends, Brie. Brie's boyfriend, D, is originally from NY, goes to school in D.C., wants to be a politician, and oddly enough, loves horses. He gets really cute and snuggly with them and kept taking pictures of Limerick. He's also not scared in the least, even around Lim, who is definitely an imposing horse. Can you say perfect?! Brie had also never met Limerick, so they both came out to the barn today while I was riding and then we went to dinner, which was a ton of fun... I love it when D is in town. I basically just WTC both ways and then called it a day, since I was kind of pressed for time and didn't want to push Lim too hard after how hard he worked yesterday. He was a perfect gentleman for our guests, aside from the obnoxious pawing when he wasn't inhaling enough peppermints for his liking. He managed to convince D that I obviously don't feed him and he never gets treats... he is such a suck up and has completely mastered the lovey-dovey adorable snuggle thing that you just can't say no to.

Not horse related, but every night this week has featured a sunset like this! 

In other news, I get to go to KHP again tomorrow to stay with Hillary and some other girls from my home barn :) I'm grooming for Hill on Saturday, taking pictures, and just soaking in the eventing atmosphere. I can't wait to actually compete in one myself! She and Hue are going to kick ass and take names, and I'll have some great pictures to show off their awesomeness.
