Sky and I were working with Diane Ward of Deep Woods farm but since we moved we find it hard to get back for a lesson. Diane worked with us to get suppleness and bend. We are riding at first level but are showing at training level. |

I went to the University of Findlay the fall of 2001. The work was hard but I learned how to take care of horses and mastered showmanship. There was plenty of riding time with world class instructors such as Clark Bradly a world champion reiner. I was also on the vaulting team there. I would love to return someday. |

In the summer of 2002 I went to work at a saddlebred farm in Ravina New York. Although I wasn't there long enough to learn to ride saddle seat I learned how to turn out a horse for a show. I clipped, bathed, groomed and saddled the horses for the riders. Some were world champion horses and riders. I even met a Playboy Bunny and one of the Fab 5 from Queir Eye at the stable. |
