First show of 2024 at Clarcona a few weeks ago - a good amount of rain on Friday, plenty of puddles, and a random rain shower that started as soon as I turned down centerline on Sunday☔️ Bono was super, making his Third Level debut and getting his first qualifying score for Regionals!

Thank you Sunsoar Photography for these fantastic photos! (I don’t think he was actually this clean, there may have been some editing magic😆)

Next set of photos are from the Region 3 Championships at the Florida Horse Park in Ocala in October. This was a big, busy event for Bono - horses, people, golf carts, scooters, tents - and he improved every day. Maybe not the scores I had hoped for, but definitely a growing experience! And we can now say goodbye to First and Second Level👋

I’m very behind on posting photos from shows and clinics, so get ready for lots of pictures of Bono, starting with the November Lehua Custer clinic!

Bono has grown up a lot this year but still can be overwhelmed in new places. Kristina and Reed’s farm is wonderful and low-key but still plenty to look at (like donkeys!!) We had a great ride with Lehua, working on good basics, bending through the body, not falling on the inside shoulder, controlling my elbows and ankles that tend to do whatever the want😆

Thanks Kristen and Sunsoar Photography for the great photos!

This should sound familiar for my students! 😁🐴

Someone’s worn out but really wants to watch everything going on still!

Heidi & Celeste in a lesson with Shannon Dueck. The audio was removed, it was too windy to hear much.

Celeste is getting the hang of this showing thing. We still need to work on transitions (and not cantering during the stretchy circle), but she's much more relaxed. She scored 67.8% in Training Level Test 3 today.
