Drive Me Buggy 2020 Hours

[MajorClementine]

Oh Mindy I'm so sorry about your grandfather. Grandparents are pretty special people.

Mindy, I am sorry about your Grandfather, condolences to you and your family.
Was he a horse person?

 

[MindySchroder]

Thank you ladies. Yes he was a horse person! He loved horses and ponies. He used to tell us the funniest stories about a pony they had when my mom was a little girl. He was a total enabler when it came to us purchasing more horses and ponies. In fact he and my grandmother bought me my first big horse. He was a very special man!

2/1 - Annie = 2 hours / driving

The play day was so much fun! My husband shared Annie with me so she got even more driving! We competed in two scurries and for the first scurry out of 9 entries, Annie took 2nd place with me and 4th place with my husband! She got a real workout yesterday. So proud of her!

Annie standing and waiting her turn. This was big for her too.

Annie is not in the photo with that Appy and the Halflinger there, I accidentally posted that. The one in the foreground is Simon and he is a little speed demon!!!!

Mindy, Sorry about your grandpa and so glad you were blessed with such a special one!

Very cool! What a fun day and looks like the weather was perfect.
I have noticed my fidgety guy stands fine in a lineup since all the other horses are standing there.

Happy 2020 everyone! Here's the official hours thread for anyone who wants to join us. I'm working on getting 2019 hours totaled and we've got a few surprises for our little group once I get caught up. Happy driving in 2020, looking forward to sharing adventures!

Can you send info on this works. I’m starting my mini driving and would like to do this with him. Please send me more info.

Just post your horse's name and the time you ground drive OR drive hitched. Either/both.
It has to be you driving and not someone else driving your horse.
It is the time hitched. Sometimes we are out and about chatting with neighbors and we count that time, or at shows/parades; all hitched time counts.
Welcome!

 

[Cayuse]

Welcome tinkchevy48. Looking forward to hearing about you and your minis.

Good Job with Annie, Willow Flats! I enjoyed the pictures. It's fun to share with the hubby, Dan and I share Cappy alot. He doesn't like to drive Peanut, he's all mine .

30 minutes ground driving Cappy
15 minutes ground driving Peanut, both today.

@MindySchroder very sorry to hear about your grandfather. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

welcome to @tinkchevy48 and @Crickett !

I haven't had much time last week:

1/29: 30 minutes for the team Teddy/Moony
2/1: 40 minutes for Teddy/Moony again
2/2: 40 minutes for Teddy and 30 minutes for Moony

 

[Willow Flats]

2/4 - Annie = 50 mins / driving
Kriss = 35 mins / driving

Was a crisp but really clear day. Had some issues but will post in another section. Maybe someone has ideas.

 

[Minidreamz0581]

I’m finally on the board this year with 25 ground driving minutes for Eve! I’ll post more info about her on the ‘Your Drive Day’ post to trim this thread down a bit. I tend to post novels and I’m determined to keep this one about the minutes!

 

[MindySchroder]

Zorro and went sledding today! There was a lot of adjusting and re-adjusting and then completely red necking something together so we could actually sled. LOL! So it ended up being 45 minutes of driving!

 

[Northwolf]

yesterday: 60 min for Teddy, 30 min for Moony

 

[Marsha Cassada]

40 minutes for Dapper Dan today.

 

[Marsha Cassada]

60 minutes for Midnight today. She was a good girl. She did quite a lot of nice walking. Though she did get her tongue over the bit once--first time since using the new bit.

 

[Willow Flats]

30 minutes for Kriss Kross and
40 minutes for Annie driving.

Annie spooked pretty good at a running calf but I was able to prevent a bolt.

Good for you at preventing a bolt.
