Horse Showing is Fun?!

I had a fantastic weekend at the Chinook Country Dressage Show this weekend! Great people, great times, great rides, and the best mare ever!

I show for lots of reasons: motivation to push for a goal, exposure to new places and experiences, getting an independent review of where we are in our training, figuring out our strengths and weaknesses, using judge's feedback to learn what we need to improve, etc. This weekend was all that, plus, for maybe the first time, I actually had a lot of fun doing it!

Full recap to come.

Kachina had fun being spoiled with a near endless supply of carrots
