Jose Jalapeno and I headed down on Thursday and settled into the barn. We had a nice ride in the arenas and ended up riding alone in both rings. No horses anywhere, but a tractor came in. Jose was great! We walked through the parking lot and half way down the race track, no issues! Jose was interested in looking around but had a loose rein and kept to a walk. My best boy!!!! He had a bath and snuggled into his stall while I went to see what the CSN team had done with the booth. WOW!!! Man alive are those girls talented!!!!
Friday Jose and I performed a Standardbred demo solo in front of the crowd. He was perfect!!! We had rear, lay down, play dead, sit, everything! Couldn't have been more proud. Right after, we got tacked up and met Peggy Brown for the Balanced Rider clinic. What a lovely lady! It was likely the best clinic I could have picked for the boy and he was fantastic!!! Energetic, like always, but focused and brave.
Saturday was less busy for us, we got to do another solo Standardbred demo and Jose was certainly more ramped up with the packed stands and energy from the crowd. He wanted to perform, for sure, but just a little too excited to stay in his lay down and play dead. He was still so fun to perform with and the crowd seemed to really like him! <3
Sunday we got to ride with Peggy again. By his 4th day in the stall, Jose wanted to go OUT and PLAAAAY!!! He had gotten a treatment and massage in the morning from the incredible Jody Schulze-McMann of Broken Spur Equine Therapy so he felt FANTASTIC. Again, he was very energetic and wasn't very interested in standing still and relaxing. I can't blame him. Still, he was with me, trying to do what I was asking for, and being a joy to work with. Peggy said she quite liked him too. :) My family had come down to spend Saturday evening and Sunday with me! <3 It really meant the world to me to have their support.
In two weeks I'll be back down to the grounds with Ritchie this time to ride in the AJYR dressage show. Woo hooo! Better get out to the barn and get on him now.
Happy Horseing!
