Clover Grove Horse Show

We had a great time at Clover Grove!

We had a LONG day, as we had riders in the first class and riders in the last class, and riders in just about every division of the day.  It was a gorgeous day, not too hot and a little breeze.  Britni and LuAnne had nice courses, lovely food (yes, wonderful, Mrs. Salo, thank you!) and we all enjoyed the experience.

Summary and Highlights:

Willow and Daisy:  Pony Hunters--some nice ribbons and points in the Medal.  Go Wills!
Savannah and Chips Ahoy:  Pony Hunters--5th in the Derby, Third in Pony Medal
Katie and Huck:  laid down some good trips--when they add the lead change they will be very competitive.
Kathleen and Ben:  Third in the Derby, some very nice trips in the Specials and Intermediates
Lily and Tucker:  Several nice ribbons in Pony Hunters, winning Pony Medal until Tucker tripped and
         spooked himself!!!
Jane and Queenie:  Jane was very calm, as this was only her second show, and  Queenie, you're the best!
Victoria and Bella:  We are so proud of Victoria, cantering for the first time at a horse show. You go, girl!
Bunte and Chip:  Rocked the Leadline Class!
Payton and Daisy:  Kept up with big brother Bunte in the Leadline Class while charming the Judge.

Many thanks also to the Mom-squad, who kept everyone clean, hydrated, calm and on time!!  We appreciate you, Sara, Therese, Suzanne, Linda, Char, Pat and Dorothy.  Many thanks also to Pen (Katie's Dad) for providing the man power and the "bear grease" to remove the errant salt feeder that had become wedged in between my trailer tires.  Now how did that happen????  (another story...)

Thanks also to Sara for driving the extra truck and trailer and to Dixie for serving as Scribe and extra hands.

Enjoy the pictures!!!
