Deja'vu - Ground Hog Day... Two more 8th Places

Another two events with 8th places - I think we should play the lottery or go to Vegas - what are the odds of placing four times in the 8th position in classes of 32 or more 4 times in a row??? How funny.

Bree did fantastic in both her events today improving her times over last year and we couldn't be happier with the outcomes!

Well, that wraps up her part of the show with four Top 10 finishes!

We have an "off" day tomorrow then I ride Friday morning at 9am...

Deja'vu another 8th in poles

Bree rode fantastic again today - she placed 8th in an event that last year she got DQ'd for her horse loping - so this is awesome - her best time ever...

Her time this year would have placed her in fifth place last year - the competition this year is so much tougher!!!

Tomorrow is her favorite event (keyhole) and also Fig 8 stakes - they start as the first class at 10am...

Paige made it down here - poor thing, her flight was quite delayed that she didn't even get to the hotel until 1:45am - so, we picked up some lunch and we're all taking a nap - LOL... Then off to do some shopping then a nice steak dinner!

It's been raining with isolated thunder storms since yesterday afternoon - ick.. We got soaked walking from our barn to the arena..

Bree took 8th in Barrels...

Just a quick update...

Bree took 8th in Barrels out of 32 riders.. The web cam feed is working - she is number 967 and will have the same number throughout the show...

Bill and I are SO proud of her.. The horses who beat her have all either won or taken 2nd in the past and she is about the only rider who has put every mile on her horse - (no trainer, not a "finished" games horse) - and that means as much to us as any ribbon she gets...

Her ribbon is proudly displayed in our room -

Tomorrow is poles and they are the first class at 9am...
