Two hundred miles flew by and I entered the time zone known as Ava! The golf cart guy met me at the entrance. I found Nova, Powder and Velvet and the Vaught family. Life is good. I beat a lot of people here. There are still parking spaces available if you want to run on down to Ava!
We had fun times at the office getting everyone signed up and ready to go tomorrow. Everything went smooth as silk. Everyone has numbers and even better, safety pins to attach the numbers to the saddle pads. I chatted with everyone in the office. They all were excited to see me and vice versa! ha
I got Powder a duplicate set of registration papers as I misplaced her original papers. I tell you this so that you will be as astonished as I was to receive a duplicate registration certificate for her with a solid gold seal. I tried to buy a few more duplicate registrations, but it’s not allowed. $20 for a gold seal is darn amazing!
We watched Caitlyn and Izzy riding in the Kid’s Day trail class with expert coaching from Steve Atkinson, a handsome young guy wonderful horse trainer, who never ages. Ann Compton came strolling by with some serious fox trotter bling. Ann is a young blond with bling. She is covering the Kid’s Day. Look for the Online Newsletter to see some of her pictures and stories about the day. I do have a complaint about Kid’s Day. The kids all got tie dye fox trotter T Shirts. And my complaint is…where is my tie dye T Shirt? Kid’s only, drat it.
We took a break and dispersed. I went on my daily run to WalMart and my annual drive around town to see what is new. Currently I’m sitting in the wonderful True Brew Coffee and Sandwiche Show. It’s wonderful in here. I’m having tea and a scone. I have WiFi. It’s better than McDonalds where I normally hang out to publish the news of the show!
Tomorrow is a full day of every versatility class you can think of. We have Open and Youth events tomorrow. Everyone shows in something tomorrow! It’s going to be a long day. Some of the day might have some moisture coming from the clouds. Hopefully it waits until we are done.
True Brew is open from 6:00-6:00 and to 8:00 on weekends.
Gotta run! Gotta find everyone and watch everyone practicing to get ready for tomorrow!
Oh, and another thing…. the book, Susan FoxTrotter is on sale at the Fox Trotter Shop. Buy a copy there, find me and get your book autographed if you are on the grounds tomorrow and Thursday.
