Well we seem to have hit a status quo on our horse life for at least a short time. Katie is home and is working with many horses and busy with lessons. I personally am loving having her here and she has been such a help with my horses. Her eye and timing have developed to be so refined. In finding herself without a job (outside of teaching and training locally) and not having a horse to compete on at the next level she applied for a job in Germany…. and got it!!! So it looks like in November she is off to Europe for a year to ride and work in a private barn in Germany. This fulfills yet another of her dreams for riding. She and Milo will split up next weekend after they compete for three days at the Southern Calif. Jr / Yr Championships in Los Angeles. This will be hard for both of us as he has really stolen a huge piece of our hearts. What he and his owner Pam have done for Katie is amazing and he will never be forgotten. We pray the right person finds him and enjoys his big heart as much as we have. I will be posting the times for the show next wknd as soon as they are available just incase anyone can come up for the “farewell tour”.
