Camp Then Colorado
Sunday, June 29, 2014 We are all settled into Colorado Horse Park! The horses arrive tomorrow afternoon sometime but Abby and I got her early to help set up the stalls and get things ready. The horse park is much smaller than Kentucky, which will be nice when walking horses to and from arenas. We are staying in the campground this time so we are only a short walk from the barns and the arenas are just up the hill. One of the horses, Lucho, arrives tonight in about thirty minu
A Quick Trip Home
Monday, June 23, 2014 This is has been a very easy week after the initial unpacking. Tuesday was our day off so I slept in as long as I could.

Well kind of, but I am having fun too and even as tired as I am, the two weeks have been c
Kentucky Week 1
Well the first week in Kentucky in done! It has been a crazy yet very amazing experience and will continue on yet another week!

Let me tell you, that is the way to travel anywhere. Not only is there a cool air controlled seat thing that you can make get really tall then let it all out and whoosh you are short again,


Packing and Lessons- Week 2
Sunday June 1, 2014 Packing day! We spent all day making sure that we have everything for the Kentucky Country Aire show. Ashwood has a big semi that we will loaded with trunks and fans and shelves, and plenty of other things. Tomorrow morning, eight horses will load up onto the semi and two horses will jump into the four horse trailer and off we go! I can’t wait to see Kentucky Horse Park in depth! I have been once, when my mom and I went to look at colleges. We stopped by t
