Horses and Wabun are the two things that define me. Horses keep me going throughout the year until I finally reach the shores of Lake Temagami. I spend about two hours a week in the saddle; I wish I could spend more. Now that I am working at Frank’s farm I work for my rides. So no minute is ever wasted when I’m in the saddle. My rides now are spent rehabilitating and teaching horses, I never waste time if it means wasting a horse. When I’m teaching these beautiful animals it means giving them a second chance. Life is all about second chances, because everyone makes mistakes.
I have made many mistakes in my life, but this one horse Mico has made many mistakes and he continues to make them. Mico is the type of horse that will buck, dance, and rear whenever he wants to. He also has no ground manners. This woman at my barn has been working with him to make him a better future. I have ridden with her and seen what she can do with him. He is a smart horse he just choses to use his brain for the wrong reasons. When I see this woman, Shannon riding him she never wastes her time. She makes sure she is helping him. So no time is ever wasted when you are riding a horse.
