Hmmm ... What will I write about? I am not really sure, but the website alone just doesn't give me canvas enough to write. And frankly, the newsletter required attendance at chapter meetings. Advanced riders will no doubt be bored by my amateur dressage revelations as in, "so that's what the outside rein is for!" and "Oh! Not with my hands, but with my SEAT!"
So, we'll see where this goes. In all honesty, this could be a one-shot deal that peters out without even the proverbial ball of fire. You might come back tomorrow and wonder where my blog went.

Thanks, Sara! You'll probably see TONS of comments about "my coach" says this and "my coach" says that and "my coach" is the best! Comments are closed.

About the Writer and RiderI am a lifelong 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.
