ooh i wanna go.....

hmm open schooling 3ft ya ya ya

OPEN BARE BACK DOLLAR OMGGGG RIDE A BUCK!! i wanna do ittt

Wadafugg is "Follow the Leader?"

Ever notice how the always put the ride a buck a the very end of the day? Dead last? After a long, hot dusty day, when your legs totally feel like overcooked sphagetti? What's up with that? Is it more entertaining for onlookers that way? :lmao:

Lately I'm having the overwhelming urge to do jumpers. I must be hormonal or something, 'cause that is SO not like me. Friends tease that my motto must be "speed kills." Seriously, I am often urged to go faster during a hunter round. Of course, I'm also having the urge to do a hunter pace, and I'm also not a fan of jumps that don't fall down with you. Just not cool. So I'm not believing much that the little voices in my head tell me these days....

Yeah, I'm old and skeered. :lmao: Oh well, it doesn't matter anyway 'cause my poor mare is without a shoe, and that makes her a tad bit unhappy. So no fun for us 'till her feet are better.

What is a Cake Walk?

I wonder if the Parent Leadline if it is required they have a show outfit. Maybe I can talk my mom into doing it. She would love it, just doens't have the clothes to wear.

This sounds like sooo much fun, but its the same day as Mounted Wanderers last show of the year :ohwell:

hmmm jumpers...............wonder if i'll have higgins ready for that by then...its kinda soon...

i want sparkles back :(

This sounds like sooo much fun, but its the same day as Mounted Wanderers last show of the year :ohwell:

mumble///mumble...

Drat...

I guess I will be skipping the benefit show.

noooo the benefit show is SO much cooler LOL

noooo the benefit show is SO much cooler LOL

You just want to see my mom doing lead line. :lmao:

true true, that would be very entertaining!


so did we ever find out how much classes cost etc?? i can't find it on the website, where did the prize list come from? and on the website it says "benefit weekend, oct 11-12...is the show over two days?

Maybe its like their other shows. Western Sat and English Sunday?? I will email them to find out.

me too, i sent them an email

i want sparkles back :(

What happened to Sparkles?:whistle:

they gave her away to the same people that bought shaffa. i think they had some kids to ride her and were going to give c some money when they sold her. hmm

i got the full prize list, but its too big to attach

here's the email i got back from smha people:

The entry form for Sunday on the website can be used....flat classes are $11, over fences classes are $14, jumpers are $15, add back are $30. Still working on the final details....we are interested in making some money for the benefit and having a good time..this is our first time doing things like this so we are looking forward to it and a little anxious all at the same time. Thanks for asking!

Too funny that is the same email I got. Looks like fun.

So is it one day, or two days?

just one day - the 12th
i got this email tonight:

Hi there...please use the entry form on the website for Sunday...by filling in the blanks with the numbers from this prize list....thanks! No membership or non-member fees apply, no discounts for pre-entry since we hope to make a fairly significant donation...thanks...but EMT and admin fees stand....

hey devine..
got room on trailer? I REALLY need to take indy to PG before the chapter challenge. Dont think i want to show him that day because i just want him to chill and see the scenes and relax... maybe lunge?

I will be doing the benefit show instead of Mt. Wanderers! :lmao: Red will be all braided and look purty. I need to get some pictures of him braided.

What exactly is the bareback dollar?

What exactly is the bareback dollar?

You put a dollar under your leg/tush riding bareback. Whoever can keep the dollar longest wins.

The dollar is place any where above the knee. On your inner thigh between the horse and rider. It is normally run as a command class. Last person with the dollar normally wins or splits the pot.

Oh, I can feel the burn. :evil:

Are you going BZ, I have space in the trailer.

Are you going BZ, I have space in the trailer.
