"There is nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse" -Will Rogers
Job 39:19-25
19 “Do you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane? 20 Do you make it leap like a locust, striking terror with its proud snorting? 21 It paws fiercely, rejoicing in its strength, and charges into the fray. 22 It laughs at fear, afraid of nothing; it does not shy away from the sword. 23 The quiver rattles against its side, along with the flashing spear and lance. 24 In frenzied excitement it eats up the ground; it cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds. 25 At the blast of the trumpet it snorts, ‘Aha!’ It catches the scent of battle from afar, the shout of commanders and the battle cry.

Day 61: Last Day of Fair
On the last day of fair I did a trail in hand class with Reece. We had to open and pass through a gate, trot around cones, trot over a ‘fan’ of logs, back between poles (which we had some trouble with. She didn’t want ton stop but instead would turn and face me which I admit could have been my fault.), walk over a bridge that was surrounded with plastic animals, and side pass (side step) over a pole. Even though we had some trouble with the back, we got first with a blue. After trail I did a lunge line class. I had only lunged a horse a few times in my life and I had never lunges Reece until that day so it was a bit shaky but we still got first with a blue. Right after that class I cleaned out her stall and packed up all of our things. I was ready to go by 4 but ended up having to wait till late to leave. When we finally got home Reece was extremely happy to see the rest of the horses. Over all we had a lot of fun and going to this show boosted my confidence in our work together. I really look forward to the final event and I am sure I will be impressed with the other ‘stangs as well.
