Old Friends

It's been a busy weekend of seeing old friends. I spent yesterday in the car with Nicole, Diane, and Amelia. We travelled to Raleigh. Yes I've now been there two weekends in a row. We went to look at a horse and a pony. We're reserving a decision on the horse, so I won't say much just yet. Pics are coming though. The pony belongs to the family that we got India from. Robbie (the mom) and Savannah (the daughter) met us for lunch at Applebees. It was a great chance to catch up. I filled Robbie in on India's show career here. We commisserated on the politics of showing, and got the run down on the pony's situation.

Then we all went out to a very beautiful private farm where they keep Skittles. He's the cutest little 11.3h paint you've ever seen. You can find a link to his and Savannah's blog in the blog list to the right. Skittles has been winning everything with Savannah. Then he recently had a bad experience that has set him back. It sounds that as soon as they have found a Medium for Savannah to move up to Skittle is coming to come live here to regain his confidence and carry some of our lesson students up through the low levels.

I had a wonderful suprise visit from another old friend this evening. Janet stopped by to drop off a couple of things. I can't tell you how suprised I was to see her knocking on my side door. We had a nice chat and talked about the Middleton Jumper show this weekend. We're all looking forward to the show.
