I'm amazed at the list I have put together just so when the weekend comes I'm ready and not stressing.

1) Get my nephew ready to deliver Motorhome and set it up for my group.

2) Get pickup ready with brake system to tow the horse trailer (put that off too long).

3) Remind everyone in group to put in for that weekend off so there are no oops. One of us will be there at all times to watch over horses, stalls and motorhome.

4) Which brings us to each one of us will need to care for those we have left behind at home.

5) Convince Jimmy this will be fun even for an old guy like him.

6) Make another list of items I need to pack to take with to the show. Good thing is the trailer has a front walk thru tack room so plenty of hay hauling inside plus room for tack and such to get it there.

7) Decide on outfit should I decide to actually go into the arena and show Jimmy myself. This will include warm woolies under clothing just in case it's another really cold weekend out there.

8) Put together grocery list as we can nuke our food and save lots from eating in the restaurant on site.

Has anyone else started their list. Basically I'm going just for fun, my daughter is going out with us and so is Erin from Mooreacres and I believe a friend is also going with us.

Yuppers, I will be going for sure. Can't wait! I'll need to get Rebel up to Crystals so I can start getting him cleaned up and taught how to stand pretty for the judges. Gotta get me another pair of boots since I cant seem to find my other one ANYWHERE. Gather up my show outfit, make sure its washed, and ready to go. Its gonna be a fun weekend. Hope to see a bunch of you there. Please introduce yourself!

It took me a moment to figure out that you are speaking of Boring,OR and not a boring show!! LOL! I just couldn't figure out why anyone would find a mini show boring! Sounds like lots of fun to me!
 
The Boring, Oregon Schooling Show IS fun. It's not for points. The focus is for fun and for learning. It's a great way for people (and horses!) who have never shown before or who haven't shown in a long time to get their feet wet. (Pardon the pun.....because the weather is usually wet!

Having grown up in Boring, Oregon, I've heard all of the jokes!

I attended Boring Grade School for eight years.

We had the TV show Real People come out and do a segment on us.

They had us all act like we were very bored in class and falling asleep at our desks.

LOL I'm soooo glad you clarified that! I, too, thought she meant a boring show! Now, there's a town that needs to change its name! LOL
 
Well, it looks like this show just got easier for me...

While we may still show Scarlet in Liberty, we'll just be prepping Mingus for halter.

I have now corrected it to show it was the Boring, OR show I am speaking of.

This is a great show for Scarlet to make her debut. Laid back and fun. People helping people. Would love to see Scarlet come out and strut her stuff.
