First Post(not really but introductions): Just Me and My Pony

Welcome to my blog, thanks for stopping by! I have one pony, technically he is a horse, but i call him my pony as a 'kind of' term of endearment,  Chester is a thoroughbred gelding, he is around 15.2 1/2hh or there abouts, but he is really stocky, which makes him seem alot bigger! He is 17yrs old but doesn't really act like it, especially when he comes down the hill for his feed :-D. Here is a bit of a timeline in photos for you:


Cover On:
Chester's first photo shoot ;-P, this was taken the day after he arrived on the truck from Halcombe(about 3yrs ago),

Cover Off:
When i first brought Chester, i kept him at my riding school, this photo is in the stables/barn/tacking up area.
Riding:
One of our first rides, took a while to really start 'riding him' properly and get my confidence up, he alot bigger and more forward moving to the other ponies/horses i was used to riding.
After a while we moved him to our house(we lived out on a farm):
We then decided to move him again as we moved back into town:
We then moved him again as we ran out of grass(yes i know he is a pig!) :-P

Just after we first moved him to his new home(it is out towards the beach).(about 1yr ago)

Summer! lovely warm weather, no need for covers :-D

Chester modeling for his new winter cover :-)

After a good ride and a bath, munching on some hay :-) (present day)
