Wow. I had no idea there was another serious horse enthusiast on here!!! You have a cracking youngster there. She is beautiful!!

I think I like them better riderless and costumeless.

All the trimmings take away from the beauty of the horses

 

[porterjack]

Thanks for the pics agree with Cam the costumes detract from the natural lines and flow
Well done

You mean Taneeka? Yes, she cleans up well. She's got the sweetest personality too. I was just over the moon when she won champion in the amateur class.

OK, one more but not of horses.

On the road home.


(No we were not driving half in the ditch. We were pulled over because they needed to adjust a tarp on top of the trailer. I jumped out to take some pics because there was a sunflower field and I like sunflower fields.)

It was a great show and an awesome week. For a farm of our size to bring 6 horses and come home with 4 champions and 2 reserve at this level of competition is just unheard of. Quality over quantity. :thumbup

That's awesome hun!

And the way you talk about it you sure can tell you enjoy your job! That's a big part of the puzzle there

After Bey's win we had champagne to celebrate. I drank mine on an empty stomach, which wasn't a good thing. I was feeling rather light headed when I was picking out stalls right after. :ninja I'd never had champagne before either and discovered that it's actually pretty nasty stuff. :ninja

 

[Darrell]

Correct. :nod:

Reserve Champion sounds much better if you ask me.

Reserve Champion sounds much better if you ask me.

That's probably why they call it that.

You're kind of a brat. IJS.

I agree with you on that one.. but some sparkling wines are much better and they don't taste as yeasty.

It's part of her charm!

I have yet to taste a wine that I like. Most of them make me gag.
