One horse open sleigh...

Today we had an amazing opportunity to hitch Charlie Boy up to a cutter (or a one-horse open sleigh)! The cutter was on loan from a woman who wanted to go for a ride in it, and of course we were happy to oblige. The cutter is probably over 75 years old-- it had been sitting in the barn on the family farm for years before her parents had it restored by the Amish. This was the first time it had been pulled by a horse in several decades. We are so lucky that she allowed us to use it and take her and her family for a spin around our hayfield!

Holding Charlie while he gets hitched up (I got the easy job).
Jubilee was NOT amused that her buddy left her alone.


Even my husband joined in on the fun!
