OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Pictures of our horses

We just got our baby Reagan back home. 15 days with the trainer and her mom and dad took him out on trail rides during that time. They just loved him. We do too.

Thanks, I know I have overdone it, and over posted and put too many pictures. For that I apologize! (jumping up and down, clapping, laughing and singing.)

Don't apologize! There can never be too many pictures! :) I could look at horse pictures anytime, especially the babies! I agree, angel wings on that cute little butt! You are so right, it does often come down to training. I didn't see a name, do you have one yet?

no. But we always meld the dam and sires names together.
Howells Man of Gap
and Gables Bright Bars.
The bright comes from Mighty Bright and Bright Eyes Brother
The bars comes from Three Bars, etc
Gable is our barn name for Howells Man of Gap, our stallion.
Sometimes we take from their sires and dams, like
Burnt Spur, Studyhall, Bar Flower, Leo, The Ole Man, Poco Pine, etc.
Or indian names in the app side like
Squanto, Ghost, (ghosts of Comanche) Squaw, Snow-Clouds, Kawliga, Choctaw, Patchy, Apache, etc. You get the picture.
Hey, I could let ya'll name him! I took a picture of him with daisies, and thought, no, he's a girl. can't be daisy.

I just love seeing spots! My Curly is starting to spot out too. I hope to register him as an Appy too. I love the pictures.

Love the name Ginger, it reminds me of Black Beauty. Those old worn pages....

This girl likes to stand and lay on horses. I think she should join the Riata Ranch Cowgirls and do all those vaulting tricks like at the rodeos! I think its exciting to watch them gallop on the horses standing up, holding up the American Flag and watch the flag whip around!

CCR, What a beautiful horse! As you requested, here are our two new horses, which my little Arabian, Monique welcomed about 1 week ago.

Wow nice horses and outfits! I don't know how you do it - going to shows with the cost of gas to haul these days!
And the buggy behind Tucker is so perfectly manicured it almost looks photoshopped! LOL. Beautiful!

Thanks...........We only go to local stuff now..........it is hard to justify going somewhere when the gas is so high! I have been driving my miniature around to get her used to all the "spooks".
