Following, images of a horse . . . never ridden before and a cowboy.
First morning of clocks springing forward. Early start.
Will ride to the ranch of Pipi for coffee, then on.

Oh How I LOVE the photos of the first ride horse training. The blindfold is interesting. Where the ears pinned back too, or was that all the horses
doing? In one of the photos it looks like the rider is putting the ears forward, or is he reaching up to lift the blindfold? This is very interesting
to me. I would love to hear about the ranch style process, how and why it works. I helped train Tennessee Walkers for their first ride, and it was a
long, drawn out process.
Thank you so much for your efforts in sharing your baja life with us.
I so love your photos and the stories they tell! They are really very special. It is so obvious that your soul is very involved. Thank youMula - 4-7-2013 at 08:16 PM

Pure poetry, thanks.
Won't make the Purisima/Paso Hondo ride with you all... have to head north for a short while.
Hope to ride with you in another cabalgata.
Loved the photos as always.shari - 4-8-2013 at 07:34 AM
I hope this Sunday Morning Western becomes a Nomad series! love it love it love it...and that stove is exceptional...I am envious...wonder where it
came from or was specially made? it's brilliant
Paulina...have you seen Corazon Vaquero? there is an excellent segment on breaking in a new horse that shows the whole blindfold technique....looks
like this horse was pretty calm or did we miss the bucking photo?desertcpl - 4-8-2013 at 07:55 AM

I do hope this becomes a series,, I personally am totally fascinated about these Rancheros and their lifeneilm81301 - 4-8-2013 at 07:57 AM

This youngster (the horse) appears to be a bay roan. Do you know what color the parents were? It roaned out early if this is a youngster.....just
curious. I always eyeball horse color in Baja.....bajacalifornian - 4-9-2013 at 12:42 PM
