More Show Notes

By Crystal at 7:49 am on June 11, 2006

Its’ Sun Morn and I’m recovering. I’m gonna get up and try to be semi-active today to ward off horse show hangover. I will have to take off prolly 3 days of riding to let my leg heal. or maybe I will just ride bareback.

Anyway here are 2 more cute pics of Cook and Patti standing at the trailer together.

and here, they are gossiping about the barn.

I do want to express gratitude to Kevin. I fell, he told me I was ok, he didn’t let me wallow or get upset. He offered to get on her and get her over it (which of course I wanted… the only thing worse than falling, is falling twice over the same jump). So he got her over it twice and then put me back on her. I went over it (and then later twice back over with Mere at schooling break). Interestingly, there were several refusals over that same jump that I saw, so I don’t feel that Cook was being naughty. It just appeared bigger than it was and I was on her neck.  I was afraid of it as well and that never helps ur horse. They know when you’re hesitant about a jump.. it’s like they say um, Crys is scared, whats up with it?, maybe I should be? I should have asked him to drop the fence down and gotten more confidence over it, but hindsight is 20/20. Oxers are my nemesis anyhow.
Anyway thanks for looking out for me.
