Ditto, Lynne

Well I have two problems with that: 1) it won't let me, says i have already added mana, and, 2) adding mana does not show anyone else that i agree!

But no big deal. lol.

Well, as to something not "new"...  I can listen or watch something over and over and sometimes still never get it.  Every person needs refresher courses especially with horses!

I watched the two Saturday clinics and the Sunday 11 am clinic and thoroughly enjoyed and learned something new at each one. Brenda was very kind and patient with the people in the ring as well as very engaged with the audience. Tina made a great "horse" to demonstrate various gaits and all was done today under trying conditions of winds gusting with a dust storm moving through Rod's arena. We all bought saddle pads, and my daughter bought Brenda's bit after watching it being used in the seminar. We drove 4.5 hrs each way and would do it again next week if we could. Thanks Brenda!

Welcome, what a great experience the Equine Affaire was this weekend.  I am sitting here in our room saying wow.

It was truly a wonderful experience meeting everyone. I am speaking for both Brenda and myself.

We met one of the stalwarts of the message board, the one and only Lakota. I do have many new heroes........... "The Blaze" ........... the Blaze's better half Wayland, is a perfect match for our girl. He is a true rainmaker who I cannot express my gratitude enough.  He and Blaze are quite a couple!  Both are workhorses, and offered invaluable help through the event.  We could not have got through this weekend without their help.  Blaze?  Her screen name is very appropriate.  What a fire cracker!  And she is so organized, that she kept us all in line, in a very nice way.

Lakota (Chris) came just to visit and ended up working his butt off helping us tear down and load the trailer. Lakota and Wayland helped me get the very hard work of tearing down the display booth, and hauling things back to the trailer, possible.  I don't know how Brenda and I could have managed on our own.  As it was, we were all totally done in, but felt better after a "family" night out at a local steak house.

Thanks to all who stopped at the booth to say hi. 

We're pooped.  I will write more later, but wanted to let you know what a great weekend it was, and how much Blaze and Wayland, Brenda's certified trainer Debbie (I don't know her screen name), and Lakota, helped us make this very labor intensive event a real success.

Here's to Gaits of Gold, on our way back.  You guys, keep us in your prayers, because the same large company/competitive people who deliberately attempted to put Brenda out of the running a few years back (and nearly succeeded), still have us in their sites. . .They do NOT want us to have a come back. 

Here's to David winning over Goliath on this new venture!

Jake

Jake, thank you for all of your kind words and appreciation. Wayland and I had the time of our lives at Equine Affaire! It was a great pleasure to meet both you and Brenda. It was a bit of a dream come true for me. I look forward to our next meeting!

cbbglp - Thanks! I enjoyed being a horse. I've had lots of practice!

Jake and Brenda... it was this site and all its valuable help from everyone and the articles, Brenda's newest book, and an IMUS saddle, pad and ICB that has made an awesome trail TWH out of a former padded show winner.  I hear a lot of these show horses cannot make the transition to riding calm out of the arena.  Rain did!! I could not have done it without the tried and true experience Brenda got started here.

:hs1 :My horse is proof, lol!
