Hurrah!!!

Well, not surprisingly, I wasn't the only one at the barn who was upset that people were still going to Woodside. Both my trainer and the barn manager sent out emails on Tuesday saying that, due to boarder concerns, no one would be going to Woodside!! I feel a little bad that I am excited about this since many of those who had planned on going ended up losing their entry fee, but ultimately, I am more concerned about my horse's well being.

Also, I checked the Woodsite site this morning and the new precautions they have in place to monitor signs of EHV-1 seem not only tedious, but also unreliable. They are having riders check their horses temps twice a day and place outside their stall, among other things.

Seeing as Woodside was going to be our last show till August, I guess Gatsby and I have a nice, relaxing summer ahead of us now:)

Today is the day!!!

Twin is finally here!!! Gatsby shipped out this morning and I will be joining him in Paso this evening. We have been doing dressage all week and he has been beyond fabulous. I am a little worried about him getting the day off today but I don't ride till 4pm tomorrow so I plan on riding him first in the am. I will try to take lots of pictures of the course to post!

Starting tomorrow...we will be doing this again!!!!...and this...and this

I'm very excited if you couldn't tell:)
