The Count Down Begins

In a week we ship to The Horse Park of NJ for 2 shows really.
On Saturday the 29th we will be taking part in the Battle Of the Breeds, TBs against STBs, should be a fun event. Then On Sunday is the Standardbred Show.

So, this am I was at the barn early to clean Duncan up and ride him before the Farrier arrived. He had never seen him go English and really like the huge Trot. He trimmed and reset the fronts and trimmed the rears. Then my Instructor Bri and our friend Nate stopped by. I was going to have a lesson with Bri but by then the sun was out and the weather was at least oppressive so we just discussed what to do with his disgusting mane and pulled it a bit. I also banged his tail.

So, that 2 things off the To Do List. Have to make a run to the tack store and then pick up shavings and start packing up everything. A friend is trucking down from Maine and we are going together from RI to NJ for the weekend.
