I have been busy making collages, below are two that I just finished and are on ebay. It was very interesting putting them together. The main thing being how to fit each picture on to the paper and include all the horses. When I make a pedigree I have a lot more leeway as I can choose how many pictures to put on it. I am thinking of what other collages to make.  Doug says that they are not stricly speaking collages, so picture group may be a better description.

Eddy and wife Stephanie were here for a few days. We had a great time with them, including a visit to the Getty Museum. Pictures are of us on the lawn at the Getty.

Doug got his wisdom teeth taken out a few days ago and is recovering. He is still in quite a bit of pain, but feels good to have got them out, as they had been bothering him for a few years. His back is in wondeful condition and soon he will be recovered and back to normal.
I rode Karrot around the property here this morning early. We are having a heat wave so I did not ride for very long. I look forward to having Doug ride with me soon, and I may have a go at ponying Sierra.
Eddy and Stephanie are due to come and stay with us for 4 days from Tuesday. They are over on the West coast for a wedding.
House hunting continues to be elusive, alsthough our favorite house on Darlene Lane came down by $10,000. http://www.redfin.com/CA/Moorpark/6145-Darlene-Ln-93021/home/4563959

Here I am on the beach at Malibu. Jody came to stay and he went surfing. Doug and I and the dogs sat and watched. We must have walked at least two miles from the steps that led down to the beach. I have sore legs today. We have driven by quite a few houses for sale and one piece of land.  None were either suitable or available. It is frustrating and I can only hope that just the right place is around here somewhere.
I had great fun sewing myself a saddle seat outfit for a photo shoot. Doug the photgrapher. I have always liked the look of the out fit  and was inspired by the Morgan Show that we went to in Santa Barbara.  Karrot had been lame in a hind leg, so I waited until he was better. I turned him out today in the round pen today and he acted like a two year old and even did a flying lead change. I will ride him now every other day while I can.

Doug took a great photo of the blue moon and now I am inspired to go and get a canvas and paint it. I can see that the moon would look better if it was painted bigger.
