Today has been a wonderful one at ASPIRE. This morning myself and two other people took the miniature horses Pixie, and Cody to the Grundy Care Center. When we got there the elderly were waiting to pet and enjoy the horses. Who knew little ponies could bring so much joy? I was able to lead Pixie. She loved rubbing her head on my pants. The people reacted really well to the two "mini angels" as ASPIRE calls them. I hope to get to do this again. Maybe I will bring my mini horses from home to the care centers in Fairfield. Here are some pictures of the horses that went with us today! The first one is Cody and the second is Pixie.
I have also been working hard on the Horsemanship 101 classes. We now have a steady schedule and are typing up and adding events to the courses. Sadly showing videos to the children will not work seeing as the equipment they have needs to stay in the best of shape. Time has also been an issue when planning the schedules. I will keep you posted as we work towards our goal.
