Fun little solo trip for Kristin and MTM You Do You - they laid down some lovely trips in the 3’ USHJA and pulled a few ribbons. Thank you Ella Fechtman for sharing the best boy 🫶🏼

It is never easy to say goodbye to the horses that have done so much for us.

Merlin, you helped us start the Penn State Equestrian Team at the farm. You’re forever an OG team horse 💙🤍

You taught everyone from walk trot up through open. You had a secret talent as a gymnastic king 👑

You tried our patience being scared of you own shadow, boxes, the fan, the cross ties, the farrier, etc…

You wanted us to hold you like Scooby-Doo when you were unsure

And yet you were the bravest trail horse. You were always first choice for a newbie to ride out past the farm.

You were the one the students could come and cuddle with if they needed to. You loved to be groomed and grazed and loved on.

Sunday was rough - I knew by mid afternoon that I couldn’t leave you. I wanted you have someone by your side as you went onto greener pastures with his lesson buddy Jack. I’m happy I was able to give you a few good years of retirement.

You have left some big horseshoes to fill, rest easy Great Pumpkin 🎃🫶🏼

Since it’s Pony Finals week, it's only fitting that this throwback is dedicated to one of the very best to ever do it - The Pied Piper 🥁💕
•
Pictured here doing the Pony Medal with Eliza Gretok in 2011 - they stayed in the callback for a few groups and got bumped near the end of the class 🫤
•
Piper taught so many kids throughout his life and is now teaching the next generation of horses (photos in comments!) If we could have a barn full of Pipers we'd be GOLDEN 🫶🏼
To quote KKG, "He's the greatest pony ever!"
•
I may or may not have video of his green year in 2008 (Eliza would've been 11 🫣), would anyone like to see that??
