Not-So-Speedy Dressage
From Endurance to Dressage
I was putting on my boots the other morning and glanced up to check on Speedy. This is what I saw.
The early morning sun was streaming though the barn giving everything a lovely glow. With the sunlight cascading down Speedy's tail, it looked almost luminescent.

I am appreciating how very tidy it looks. I didn't know that I would like it this much! :0)

Any time you want to pop over and show me how to do the top of the tail, I'll be ready. I have the summer off so any day works for me. :0) Comments are closed.
