You might be a redneck.....

If your family gets hold of some dynamite on the 4th and blows up a washing machine. My son blogged about it HERE.

I sure wish he'd been using my camera for the video, rather than his cell phone. But you can get the idea.

So, what's my horse, Blue, been doing?

He gave granddaughter Lyndsay several rides this week.


We made thirty people stop celebrating the Fourth for twenty or thirty minutes so he could give Mercedes a ride.

The day after the Fourth, he gave Erin (age 12) a ride.


She handled him so well in the round pen that I let her ride him in the small pasture.

Then he gave Erin's older sister, Heather (age 14... almost), her first horseback ride.


Finally, ten-year-old Mikey had HIS first ride.

Heather, Erin, and Mikey are Cliff's sister's grandchildren.

I love my horse.
