A Long Awaited Update

Sorry it's been so long since I've had a chance to update everything. Mom's computer broke so she's had to make do with using a temporary one, which isn't exactly Kinson proof, making it hard for me to bring you updates! I finally managed to convince Mom to let me update my blog, as a lot has gone on!

On October 2nd Mom and Amanda took me down to down town Phoenix. I've never been into the city before. I can't say it was my favorite place but I didn't mind it. I walked along the streets, unfortunately wearing the newest contraption Mom purchased (its so she doesn't have to "clean up" after me when I have to go), visited A.S.U. and went to Rainbows Fest which was being held in Heritage Square Park. There were so many people, but I let all who wanted to pet me do so. Mom said I was a really good boy for being so calm. When you have so many fans its whats expected, right?

In addition to gathering hundreds of new fans and visiting A.S.U. I also got to meet Chase Bank's mascot. I'm not sure his name but he sure was excited to see me! I've never seen a dog so big, or so blue. Mom wanted a photo, and so did the dog. He happened to find one of my favorite itchy spots on my whithers, so I guess he was alright! It got me thinking though... I want to be the mascot of some where! I've decided to take over A.S.U. and replace Sparky. Mom is doubtful I can pull it off, but just you wait.

Just a few days after my big day in the city (and a few days after being clipped!) the worst storm I've ever seen hit. Mom felt horrible because she had clipped me on Saturday to go into the city and for my show next Sunday, but thankfully she had clean blankets for me. There was massive wind. It was so strong I was worried I was going to blow away! Then the wind paused for a moment and chunks of ice started to fall from the sky. Mom calls it hail. I've never seen hail before and I don't want to again! It was huge, most pieces were the size of grapes but there was many that were golf ball sized! It hurt when it fell on me. After the hail stopped the rain started. I hid under the porch until it stopped. Then, of course, I had to take advantage of my wet coat and the wet sand by rolling! I was a mess-a freezing mess! Mom cleaned me up then blanketed me. Then just when it started to look like the day was clearing up and my blankets were removed it started all over again. I love this cooler weather but man I don't always love the water works.

My next show is just around the corner. I'm a little under prepared but Mom and I agree that we're after experience more than anything. There's rumors that Amanda may be getting a miniature for herself (once you meet a mini you just have to have your own!) but I can't confirm that at this point in time. I sure hope its a real nice looking filly-with long legs and blonde hair!! Halloween is quickly approaching and Mom and my personal servant are busy working on my costume. Hopefully the weather keeps cool from here on out, especially for Halloween, but it doesn't stay so rainy!

Stay dry every one and blanket your horses if you need to! Until next time, I'm out!
