Sucky Weather week forcast

Sounds like we are in for some nasty weather this week. The tri-fecta of cold, wind AND snow.

It looks likely that lessons will be cancelled on Wednesday, and possibly on Tuesday. Thursday sounds like an odd weather day, with it going from ridiculously cold, to oddly warm, so I am willing/able to add a 5:30 lesson, and take some extra students in the 7:30 lesson if people want to move their lesson to Thursday (assuming your horse is available to be ridden that day of course!)

Really tired of this up and down weather pattern, although I guess it is better than just staying cold. If you plan to ride your horse or do a lease ride on the really cold days, make SURE you are able to cool and dry the horse completely before turning it out. If I do teach lessons on the coldish days they will be such that they are easy on the horse...which usually means things that are harder on the rider....no stirrups perhaps?

I have the vet(s) booked for a few Fridays in Feb to do dental work and anything else that is needed. Please let me know asap if you want your horse looked at/worked on. If you have a Friday off in Feb, I could likely also use some help!

Vaccinations will be done in March.
