Clinic - Part 2

10/21/2013

We made it to the clinic. I am having a really hard time deciding what to say about it. As I continue to think and gather my thoughts, check out some photos of the amazing grounds and barns of Middle Ranch.

Me, too, Hannah. And please, don't feel as though you ever need to comment. I read at least 10 blogs daily, but rarely comment. I like to lurk. :0)

About the
Writer & Rider

I am a lifetime rider.
I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010.
Welcome to my dressage journey.
