Got Henry, we both drug our feet up the hill. Groomed and got tacked up and on.
We started out inside where I swear I was sweating just walking around. I joked that we should have a no stirrup walk lesson :)
Henry was good. He felt good. Was a bit heavy so some backing was in order.
Went outside and J and L jumped. I hacked around a bit more and when decided it was too too too hot and went and sat with the others. We are probably going to jump Henry this week.
Hosed Henry off and let him eat his grain while I iced him.
J and I took the golf card to take the boys back.
Saturday night I convinced Hubby to go over to Woodside Horsepark and watch the Grand Prix :)
We also got to watch some Hunter classes and I was dreaming of one day when I have money what I could do :)
I will be going up and checking on Henry tonight.. it's 107 outside so no riding, hopefully he will get a trainer ride Tuesday am (supposed to be 105), off Wednesday, hack Thursday, hopefully a lesson Friday and a lesson Saturday.
My show fam :) |
Looks like a TON of fun! 107? Holy crap.

DeleteI am jelly of your grand prix adventures. :O :O Henry's a cutie patootie as always. And 107?? Geeze. It's only gotten up the upper 90's here..kind of a cool Summer for TN. It's been getting cold at night!

ReplyDeleteToo hot lol
DeleteIt was actually not that bad. 100 when Nicku and I got on, we totally sweated balls but no one died lol.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are hard core... I'm not sure B would have happily sat there while I rode haha :)
DeleteYikes that is hot guys!
ReplyDeleteWe're having the opposite summer here, we're lucky and rejoicing if it gets to mid 20s C (that's 70s F) - this summer is panning out awful. Loads of rain and cold weather, it's like Autumn most days!
Hope it cools down enough for you to get a couple spins in on Henry, how're his legs doing? Did the deep freeze work better for the boots?
He's doing great thanks for asking! Yes the deep freezer helped for sure!
DeleteActually I have been cold hosing a little after the ride to cool the legs down a tad and then icing and that works wonders :)
I feel like a wimp for complaining about our weather now! Hope you catch a break soon :)
ReplyDeletehaha It's all good.. I just hate the it's too hot im going to puke feeling!
DeleteI know the 107 feeling. It's not fun.
