Milton has joined Rodney in a winter vacation. [What’s Up With The Home Team, Tack Update Rodney]
Wasn’t really planned. Just kinda happened.
Milton worked hard to get ready for the show in December. [Milton at Work]
Ended up not going. [Show Prep Part One, The Horse Who Didn’t Show, AWTA 2013-2024 #1]

After that, working the horses kinda slipped off the schedule. Time off to heal up whatever, if anything, was bothering him. Weather. Logistics. More weather.

Meanwhile. Milton eats. Goes for handwalks in the mornings. If not living his best life, living a pretty good one.
Onwards!

Those two are so lucky!
