The Zelda Project: "Epona Training Take 02"

Please visit www.thezeldaproject.net for all of your questions on our project. :)

The Zelda Project team is at it again, this time by making preparations for Hyrule Field / Lon Lon Ranch photo set. We will be attempting stunts with Epona, an 18HH Belgian and American Cream mix Draft named "Big John" (who just loves to eat!). Anthony, AKA Lune and model for Link, will be undergoing rigorous training from Dawn Stafford over the next month or so in order to warm him up into the saddle and get him ready for his ride with Epona in the open field!

It was extremely rainy and cold, and Jerry was out sick this time, but we were still able to have a good lesson. We discovered very quickly that Big John does not like motors, such as the sump pump being used outside of the stable to keep the water from flooding the horse stalls, or the pattering of the rain on the roof of the stable itself. He was a bit nervous, but he and Lune still did excellent despite these hurdles! Have a look and enjoy the progress!
