In October, Sebastian joins the "Lesson Program" at Killmon Farm. Everyday for over 2 hours the students from the Winchendon School, ride and learn about horses. Sebastian did really well for the first few weeks.
Near the end of the first month, he grew tired of it, he was still being ridden by our half-lease Kayla too after school was over so we think he grew sick of students after awhile. |

Sasha's Mom visits and gives Sebastian an apple.
