All you A/O's should have come to the Barracks instead of Swan Lake.  It was positively balmy out and they split the division!

but they also had Marianna, Zach and Grace...and I'm sure some more "top in the country" types.....that's for the birds!

Well, there is that. :lol: The Olders only had 3. Although one of them was Ivanhoe, and and I'm sure the other 2 also were nice. I'm glad that I don't have to think about that stuff right now. I'm just happy that I got around with all body parts in tact and didn't throw up at the in gate!

Swan Lake is 40 mins for us so I'm pretty sure that is why they are on our list.
Horses who are done the first and second day get to ship home as well so it saves us a little money on day care etc and wear and tear on the guys.

I'm just teasing you guys. I definitely appreciate the convenience of shows that are close to home, and we're lucky that we've got a fair number of them around here.

Thanks Limerick! He's an 8 year old TB, although he has a stocky build. I haven't put a stick on him, but I think he's somewhere around 15.2. He was bred for the track, but was slow so he never raced. He's not young, but he's still green and hasn't done much because he's not really a kid-friendly ride. He has a really cute jump, but it comes with a bad temper that intimidates the kids. For some reason they don't like when he takes the bit and runs away with them. :innocent: But Ms. Trainer's mom has been hanging on to him for years, hoping that he eventually would grow up. I'm on the small side, so when I asked to lease something about 6 months ago, she put me on him. For whatever reason, he and I click, and I've been having a lot of fun with him. I think he's just one of those that needs his own person to bond with and trust, and then he's willing to try for you.
