| Driving It has been a long time since we had a driving horse or set foot in show ring. It's time again! Surfing the Internet I came upon a website that deals in new and used carriages. On one of their pages was a beautiful carriage that took my breath away. I have half heartedly been looking for a 4 wheel carriage for many years but could not find one that I thought was elegant enough to purchase...until now. I ordered one, in black with grey cloth and blood red pin stripping. Not only does it have shafts for a single horse but a pole for a pair! I have dreamed of driving a pair. A pair! A goal! A challenge...I do love a challenge. Hechiza will certainly be half of my pair and I will have my eye out for another grey filly for the other half. Trovador will learn too. Talk about fancy! On this page you are going to find in the coming months the trials and tribulations (with photos to prove it) of starting a driving horse and learning to start a pair which I have never done before. It should be interesting or at the very least... amusing. |
