Going away for some days

Tomorrow I will travel to a town near Madrid. I’ll go there to start learning the basics on shoeing horses. I don’t want to be a farrier, at least now, but I’m curious to know the basics to shoe my own horses.

There will be 10 days at the mountains near Madrid, 10 days alone and far away from my family and my friends. I want to live that experience, I need a bit of lonely after all the radical recent changes in my life. And I’m curious to see what type of new friends I make there. I will spend some money and days of holidays at work to go there, but I have a feeling that it will be worth it, that it is a good investment. Time will tell.

My new pet

It is my new pet.

She is a spanish dapple-grey mare, and her name is Pedricera. I adopted her last year in December and since this we make long walks between the trees into the forest. Obviously she carry me. And when I ride her she adopts a wonderful pose, and she curve her neck and gets a middle trot that make us go so elegant.

Here is a photo to ilustrate our pose:

The first time I saw her, I said: “I’ll adopt her if I can”. And I could. I hope she lives for many years, and also hope we have good moments like the photo’s one.
