So, last night Erica and I decided to pull out the old VHS tapes and watch old horse videos. Wow, there were some CRINGE WORTHY moments recorded on that magnetic tape. *sighs* There were also some shining moments that I had not remembered. It's great to find video of horses and barns that I thought I had no visual record of.
For instance, I found the video I made when I went to go look at a TB gelding. I ended up buying that gelding. I also found the tape I made of him when I was selling him 3 years later. Such a lovely boy!
I also found the video of the first class I rode my Moosie mare in. And then the video I made to evaluate her lameness issues 2 years later. =( A year after that, I sold her to her current owner.
I found video of Abba, the 19 yo Hanovarian mare that was given to me. That video really made me cringe. So many issues, and really all of them caused by my lack of skill. *sighs* I am glad I have that video, though. It makes me redouble my resolve to continue to improve.
I need to get myself the equipment to get all of his old VHS media transferred to digital. Then I can post more videos. I really do love being able to share the wonderful horses I have been so lucky to know.
In APP news, Candidate C should be moving in the next 2 days. YAY! Now, hopefully the temps will get just a bit warmer...although there's a heated indoor, so I don't have to worry too much. Except for cooling out. *sighs* Long winter coats + good work outs = long cool out. Ew.
