Last night Angie Benson invited a few of her friends over for an evening of learning and fun with our horses. Angie put together a wonderful course of obstacles that was challenging for both horse and rider, and was based on the concept of the Extreme Cowboy Race. Some of the obstacles were pretty scary and required an enormous amount of patience and trust to manouvre through the course. Ron Ellard and his wife Michael-Anne took Skeeter and Jack and Gord and I took Magic and Nugget. It was terrific to see all the horses gain confidence as the evening progressed.
Thanks to Jan for the use of her beautiful arena and to Angie for her creativity and the enourmous effort and that went into setting up the course.
We're already looking forward to next week's course - well maybe not Skeeter.
If Michael-Anne and Ron are game again, I'm going to suggest we switch horses to make it even more interesting.
Tovie, Gord and the "Boys"
