Horse Show Highlights



Lefty gets tips from his boot camp teacher, Monty.

I'll be going back to the horse show this afternoon after coming home late yesterday. We had a good start to the show. These events are actually two identical shows back to back.

Today my sister Laurie takes her Rusty for a dressage competition to the Spokane Sport Horse Arena, near the equestrian center where Lily and Lefty are staying. Dressage is an individual event, and her run-through occurs at a specific time. So, it's easy to plan. The only unknown she faces is getting Rusty in the trailer when he has to go somewhere by himself.

Tomorrow, the exact schedule we followed yesterday will occur----just a different judge.

We'll be doing this horse show stuff until Sunday afternoon, and the primping and polish will continue. If you're in Spokane, stop by the Spokane Fair and Expo Center formerly known as the Interstate Fairgrounds. We'll be there, except for the dressage stuff on Sunday.
