| Welcome to our Beach page. It has been a long time of wishing and planning to take Hotske to the beach. Mid June 2006 was her first time since a yearling to go to the North Shore of Maui. Subsequent beach photos have been added. Most photos taken by Traci Mau. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Here we are with our beach buddies Ahni and her horse Koa. Like Hotske, Ahni has raised Koa and trained him since he was a foal. This was Koa's second time to the beach and he loved it. The trotted and galloped through the water making a big splash. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| <----- I'm lauging because Hotske just did two sassy hops that unseated me a bit at the canter. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| It didn't take long for Hotske to start playing in the water. She wasn't as confident with a rider on her back. She sank into the sand a lot. |
