Hrmm, good news? I got to ride Orion, the wonder horse, at the schooling show I run because Show is off for almost 6 weeks. O took care of me as usual, and I successfully completed my first ever 2'9" rounds in front of a judge. My lesson last night was on the super adorable Moonpie. She's a little breeding stock paint that except for a short strided (and the corresponding lack of scope) would've been a hunter extraordinaire. She's got the movement, super cute jump and attitude. She hasn't jumped much in 3 years (been mostly a broodie) and she just clocked around the little 2' jumps we asked of her. It was strange to be on a horse that spots the jump and then "takes" you there, instead of having to urge them on. This is her baby, which I am very interested in buying (although I want to see him move in a less 'chased way...see if he loses some of that suspension and settles into the flat kneed hunter trot his momma has), but can't seem to figure out how to afford board on a youngster for another 2 years. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hS7-SeFvQag |

Congrats on everyone's happy news! Yay! I got third this weekend in the Adult Eq on the Flat at Lamplight. I wasn't expecting to place at all, so it was a big surprise. |

Good news. I got to go visit BH2 and BHDog. We went for a drive (horse drawn of course) and had a swell visit. Planned our winter trip to the US Virgin Islands Anyone got a Coleman 100V AC/DC rolling cooler we can borrow?

Snack Pack, cute baby! Really cute! Let's see - I jumped today without reins - actually took them off my bridle and had a neck strap in case I felt I needed it. Mr. Fishy took some pictures - maybe I'll post them if I can get my shiite together. Mr. Fishy had a great ride today - he and Vegas are really starting to figure each other out. |

Wow, it's so much fun to read everyone's good news! A very uplifting post because all of us find something different to be such good news -- yes, even mopping the kitchen floor (I can SO relate to that one!) And sometimes the little things are the best! Great job everyone! Love the pictures and videos, too! :lol: |

Congratulations. I must admit that placing in Eq flats gives me special satisfaction. Somehow, it justifies my inability to find a spot in my hunter courses because, hey, I look good, right? :lol: Other good news in my world: I found Ulcergard for a nice price, then got another 5% of that and had shipping waived. There was talk of waiving the tax...but I'm not so sure they were allowed to charge the tax anyway...but still...total will be around $26 a tube. |

Rachel, you know Emma well enough to know she would be VERY insulted if I came home with a new car that she didn't pick... Little brat is coming to Culpeper this weekend for a playdate with Marjorie's corgis and I'll have her with me I hope on Saturday. She is just so spoiled! |

Ok, here's a picture of me jumping with no reins yesterday. Clearly I am scrunched up on my left side. No matter the difference in my stirrup length, I always feel like my left stirrup is shorter so I think I collaps in my left side to compensate? Sheesh, who knows? I thought that maybe jumping with no hands would force me to be more centered but obviously not. Anyways, it was a fun exercise!
