Busy week, but wanted to note that I had a great weekend at Zone 3 finals last weekend. Not showing - but shoring up one area of my judging weakness attending a excellent judging clinic on judging IEA & IHSA shows out on by Ellen Shevella, whose knowledge and perspective was so helpful - and fun!
She’s got two clinics coming up at Devon, one on Big Eq judging and the second on judging Pro riders.
They are for everyone - from people who are thinking about judging or just want to learn how judges do this. Plus - it’s Devon!
tThere’s more info on Ellen Shevalla Equestrian on Facebook

New deck, new furniture! Progress on the house continues. Next up - replacing the 40 year old insulation, power washing and painting the exterior. No more sad dark green.
More landscaping got done this week as new trees came in to replace some of the dead ones we had to cut down.
Happy to be here in Warrenton 🥰

Thinking it’s going to be a chilly winter!
Giving meds here and then off to judge at Red Gate!

Favorite photo of the month! Steve Bannon in handcuffs

Here I go posting about the weather.
There are already warnings about the heat today, which is an obvious one.
Just heard a warning about air quality- it is at the Orange level, which is poor. Combined with the heat, this is a toxic day for both horses and riders! 🤯🤯🤯
Humidity is 61% + 90 (temperature) = 151 - above the extreme danger level for riding.
Be careful out there!

Had an interesting afternoon being interviewed by Radio Free Asia about three videos released by North Korea featuring Kim Jung un riding his white horse.
Talked about the breed (Orlov trotter) - which I researched thoroughly, the symbolism involved (thank you Drew University)) and what I thought of his riding skills (actually not bad - which was a surprise).

Here’s one of them! Others are on YouTube! Get ready - they are fascinating in a very bizarre way!

A video of Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un’s recent ride on a white horse up Mount Paektu has been released by North Korean state media.Still pictures of Kim were...

Morning report on an icy day: The barn does have a coating of ice and it's slick out there. We will be turning out later as a result. The girls are salting and sanding around the barn, but please - if you are coming out to ride, wait until there has been some melting.
Stay safe! And if you can't stay home, please drive slowly - WTOP reporting patches of black ice everywhere!
