It's Like Being in the Society Pages

... only better because there are as many horses as people! Please don't sue me, California Dressage Society or Tass Jones; I admit that I am "borrowing" your publication and photo, but I am giving you full credit for the image. (gulp)

The photo appears in the October issue of Dressage Letters, the monthly publication of the California Dressage Society. I simply forgot to share this earlier!

All of the winners from each level are pictured in the article as well as the class placings and scores. I know it's dumb, but I was quite pleased to see my picture published. And after nearly two months, I am finally proud of my RAAC effort. Our Introductory Level score was quite good, 67%, and even though the Training Level score wasn't brilliant, 57.2%, it was in the range of the other riders. Now that some time has passed, I can say that am proud of the fact that we made it to RAAC and were able to compete with some pretty fine riders and horses.

We're pictured on the right hand side, third from the top.

Thank you, CDS, for recognizing the efforts of your membership.
