Over the EI hump!

Well, we're sort of coming out the other end of EI. Who would have thought that they would have no infected horses since Xmas Day last year and nothing showing up on surveillence; not me. Have just finished the last of the vaccinations - second shot. They say third shot is available at cost to the owner. Prohibitive if you look at the hoops that have to be jumped through..... Most of the extra staff at the DPI seem to have ended up today......hope someone is there to clean up the tail end.

We've had three competitions/endurance rides at Fernvale in the last 6 weeks or so. Mostly training rides, one 80km ride FEI rated ** I think. A Training Day at Bremervale to which we took Barty - Jan took him to a Richard Sharman instruction lesson. It was a brilliant day forever burned on my mind.

Gone fishing!

Quite literally. Well have now completed the second round vaccination of the Kholo area horses, with a few lagging behind on first or second that were closest to the Shepherds Rd area. Most everyone hereabouts that wanted to be done has been able to be done by now.

Thought I'd try and post a video of what Marty and Jo do on the w/e when they can't go riding their horses! Marty wanted to go fishing on the Brissy River and I adore the ambience and absolute gorgeousness...is that a word? of the whole deal.

Very funny really.
