Our 2002 show season

We began 2002 with a VERY cold show at the beginning of March in Frankfort, Kentucky. The temperature dropped to around 25 degrees, and it ended up snowing so hard on Sunday I had to leave my trailer and my horse! I don't recall ever showing in long underwear and sweatshirts under my hunt coat before!
Along the way we had some great shows, some big successes (including placing first under both judges at the KY State Fair), and a lot of good memories. Also along the way I made many friends!
One of our greatest accomplishments was finally nailing down our showmanship patterns, and figuring out the pull turn! I never thought Taylor would make much of a showmanship horse (those tall, leggy horses always seem to look out of place in that class), but she really surprised me.
We finished the year at the Ohio Futurity in September. A great show, and some very nice payback made for a good topping to the show season. We are looking forward to 2003...with plans to add equitation and hunter hack to our show day!
