In the Field

Daisy

Daisy was thrilled to have long walks both Saturday and Sunday. She was patient while Jen and I gathered blackberries, she found a deer carcass on both walks, and today she entered every available body of water, no matter how shallow or fetid.

Sarah and Sully

Sarah also spent the weekend in the field, attending HITS Saugerties, the Hudson Valley’s premier equestrian competition. HITS, I learned today, is an acronym for Horse Shows In the Sun. (It seems like it’s missing an S, but what do I know.) Sarah and Sully, seen here sailing over a jump, had a strong campaign.

While at HITS Jen and I encountered this rather large Snapping Turtle. I’m glad we don’t have anything like that in our pond.
