Waterford Estate: January 2011
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. Chris has been making the most of the long weekend to work on the tackroom and the stables/tie up area. He finished lining the tack room and partition walls. We are going to oil or varnish it to protect the plywood from damp horse gear before we attach the various racks, hooks and shelves to the walls. It will be a fantastic space to store all my tack and feed. In feed room looking into tack room. Standing at door to stables looking back at rest of shed. The man at work. Footpat...

Talisman Farm : 08/02/15
http://talismanfarmsporthorses.blogspot.com/2015_02_08_archive.html
Sport Horses and Ponies. Tuesday, 10 February 2015. Toffee at the Central Districts Horse Trial. Toffee and Louisa made the trek north to compete in the CNC80 class at Pukemarama this weekend. I had commitments here on the farm with a mare arriving to be bred to Brennan so I was unable to go and I haven't found any purchase worthy photos so I am afraid this will be a words only blog about the day. Cross country - this is what it is all about after all! Posted by Talisman Farm. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Waterford Estate: August 2010
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. Finally today after more than 7 years at Acacia Crescent in Hamilton, we have moved to our new home in Cambridge. It was sad to leave Acacia Cres after such a long time in what was a great unit and great location but we knew we were moving to something better. They say there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, well.I think we've found it. Vintage Waterford Estate bottled by Lyn and Terry. Wednesday, August 25, 2010. Sunday, August 22, 2010. Concrete, carpet, vinyl and tiling.

Waterford Estate: July 2011
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 13, 2011. Let there be light! Today was a momentous occasion - the electrician finished wiring up the shed. We are now fully connected to the grid. Chris was having heart palpitaions adding up the wattage of all the lights but we'll worry about that when we get the first power bill. In the meantime: we have light! Stables and tack up area all lit up. Tie up/wash bay area and yet-to-be completed stables. Internal lights with outdoor power point under cover. Electric fence unit installed.

Waterford Estate: April 2011
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. We had a big storm here today. It started with the rain about 3am, which turned into strong winds later in the morning. It got gradually worse during the day, and still hasn't eased off yet. The neighbours have lost nearly half their stand of gums and pines on our eastern boundary, with six of them crashing through our post and rail fence. Fence line before the storm. First tree to go through. One of many trees down. Splintered the fence like matchsticks. Tree numbers 4 and 5.

Waterford Estate: May 2011
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 25, 2011. I checked them just before dark and came across three very happy ponies doing what they do best, heads down eating. A big thank you to Louise Wilsden of Talisman Farm Sport Horses. Who very generously lent me her precious Hooty for a year. Without her, I wouldn't have my very special wee girl. Checking out the newbie. Sunday, May 1, 2011. Chris took some photos of the Cottage today. It's looking very cute! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Living the Good Life.

Waterford Estate: Ciara's makeover
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2012/02/ciaras-makeover.html
Saturday, February 11, 2012. Jeanette came over and helped me give Ciara a bath and take some photos. I have been considering selling her so we thought we'd give her a spruce up. She scrubs up so well that I'm having second thoughts! In these pictures she's 1 year and 2 months old. She's looking much more grown up that a few months ago. She really is going to be quite stunning in a couple of years. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Sheep and other things. Living the Good Life.

Waterford Estate: Sheep and other things
http://waterfordestate.blogspot.com/2012/02/sheep-and-other-things.html
Saturday, February 11, 2012. Sheep and other things. It's been a while since I have updated the blog so I will do it in a few posts. First, to sheep news. Chris purchased a breeding flock of purebred Wiltshire sheep. These sheep are rather remarkable in that they shed their wool in summer so reducing/eliminating the need to be shorn, and typically have hardy feet making them perfect for lifestyle blocks. The cottage is looking as cute as ever, and the gardens are starting to fill out nicely. Waterford Es...
