Hi Everyone - I have pretty much gone into horse hibernation for the winter - we have one last weekend clinic to attend and then Traveler's gets a few months off for good behavior. :)
But I finally was able to convert my DVD into a YouTube video and so I wanted to post our last run. Traveler - my lovely steed - received the CSI Horse of the Year Award for Combined Training and what a great way to end the season.
Well - congrats to all the other HOY winners - I know how much hard work, time and effort it takes to compete all year and keep at it.
Just to recap - Traveler and I finished up the year by competing last month at the USEA Recognized 3-Day Event - NW Fall Gala and Championships.
We came, we competed and through some miracle of all the stars aligning, we placed in the top 3! I could not even believe it. We had two days of perfect scores. And since we placed in the top 4 at the specific qualifying event, we are now eligible to compete in the USEA Open Novice Championships for 2012. I could never have dreamed this would happen.
Who Says Curlies Can't Jump?
Here is the YouTube Video of Traveler and I at Cross-Country and Stadium. Check out his ears - they are forward the whole time and you can just tell he is loving every second of it.
