Öskudagur 2009

As it is always fun to roam the streets and collect as many sweets as possible on Öskudagur here in Húsavík, Hjördís and her friends had already decided on Öskudagur 2008 to meet again and walk through the town this year.
The weather was not the best, but with a little help of Ingólfur and Óli, who drove the girls a bit, they managed to get candy and more in the stores here around.
After counting and weighting everything they got, they went together on Öskudagsball and had fun dancing and playing different games. Ingólfur took some pics which are now in the picturealbum.

Tölt on Ice

Yesterday was a lot going on: Icetölt in Easticeland, Icetölt on Kaldbakstjörn in Húsavík and Bautamót in the Skatinghall in Akureyri.
Of course it was not possible to be everywhere, but we tried to be at as many places as possible emoticon 
So we took part in Icetölt here and in the evening we went to Akureyri to watch Bjarni Páll take part in Bautamót. Nearly 80 riders took part and Hans Friðrik Kjerúlf on Sigur frá Hólabaki won this competition.

Winterride on the ice

As the riders in Saltvík are always ready to go for a ride and have fun we went today to Kaldbakstjörn to take a ride on the thick ice. Yesterday the riding club had cleaned a track and so people could train there horses there.
Óli, Svanhildur, Thelma, Dagný Anna, Sara and we decided to take a ride and try the ice. Laufey and Sígrún went by car and took the camera with them to take some pics.
When we arrived we met other riders from the Húsavík stables, which were already training and taking pics and videos...
The horses were willing and eager to go and had as much fun as we had on the ice. We were quite fast on the way back, everybody looking forward to come home and take a rest.

Nice surprise

Yesterday Laufey told us that there was a picture of Farsæll in Morgunblaðið last week! So we had a look on which day it was and were so lucky to get a copy of the newspaper. So young and already in the news emoticon

Icetölt

In the afternoon we packed our things together and put the horses in the trailer to go for a visit in Helluland. Kiddi had made a track on the ice on one of his meadows which is regularly flooded in wintertime. The ice is about 50cm thick and with the meadow underneath, there is no danger of taking an undesired bath.
The horses were fresh and eager to do something. In the beginning they were a bit careful about where to go, but after a few minutes they felt secure enough to tölt, trott and even gallop on the ice. Everything was perfect except for the weather... Rain is not exactly the weather we had hoped for. Nevertheless did I take some pics.

Farewell, Pjakkur!

It was a sad day indeed! When we had a look at our horses today we found Pjakkur laying and not able to stand up. He was sick just like Huginn was before. To save him from suffering and to show him the respect he deserved, we decided to put him down. It is sad to loose 2 promising young horses in so short time!

Only the good die young...

Our promising young stallion Huginn frá Húsavík died today in the afternoon after 6 days of sickness. We found him last friday looking not so well in the field and took him home to let the vet have a look at him and nurse him back. Unfortunately our efforts did not pay and he closed his eyes forever while we were with him in the stable.

Videos Saleshorses

There are new videos of the saleshorses from Bjarnastaðir online.
Ketill, a young gelding out of Kormákur frá Flugumýri and Fluga frá Bjarnastöðum, is showing himself very well after just a few weeks of training.
If you are looking for future breedinghorses it's absolutely worth to have a look at the 2 daughters of Geisli frá Sælukóti and the young stallion Glaumur! The 2 young mares have excellent, high movements and present themselves really nice.
