Lots of luck to you with your new one! Mary

Okay, I'll bite. After YEARS of going to Nationals (Worlds) and sitting on the sidelines, I FINALLY will have a horse there!!!! 

Thank you Mike and Terry of Alliance for allowing me this wonderful opportunity! Mike will be showing a weanling filly for me, Alliance Class Act. Now, I get to sweat and pace and fret like everyone else!!

Arriving Wed. to attend the sale and sit on my hands!! Leaving on the 9th. Staying at LaQuinta as well!

Chandler, your ad is beautiful! Is that "Tara" in the background or just your summer home!

Hopefully, our paths will cross this year. It seemed like everytime I went to Meridian I checked and you weren't at your setup. Maybe this year will be the charm.

If not, I will be staying in Motel Flair in the VIP parking section the other side of the main arena.

I am sure our paths will cross this year. We are not bringing as many horses as we normally bring, so we will have a lot of free time and hopefully, that means relaxing at the stalls.

If y'all like coffee, come on over..... we have complimentary coffee!

Have a safe trip everyone!

I'm not going...I don't show ( work schedule won't allow it and I have no clue about showing minis), but I wish I did so I could meet some of you...best of luck to you all...just maybe I'll see you there someday. Good luck and be safe!

I'm driving down with four. Paul will follow by air at the end of the work week. I hope to get there by Friday. I want to attend the Youth team Auction this year. I have never managed to see it yet. We have three in Futurity, Two showing Amateur and open. One horse is coming for the sale and one to go to a new home.

I hope it will be spread out enough to visit and watch alot. We are staying at a weekly place close by. I can find it but not remember the name. Its small but this week the horses get the fancy room and board.

Hope to see you all there!

That is a lot of fun. Last year I bought a part of the teams that placed 2nd and 4th. I got my money back and then some.

Be sure to also watch the Youth Parade & Awards at 7pm on Sunday evening. If you havent' seen it before it is well worth watching. The teams come in Olympic style by team in their colored tee shirts and then all of the awards are given.
