Through the Kindness of Others

While Jaliska is making progress, I have been fortunate to have been able to continue my Quest.

Let me explain.

First, my #1 trainer waived Jaliska’s monthly board while Jaliska is away in Aiken, as he was able to fill her stall with another boarder. This is a huge help, for to say the horse business  -from leasing, to owning, to boarding, to training, to shoeing and showing and of course not to forget the biweekly "lessoning," etc., is expensive is an UNDERSTATEMENT at best! Throw in a daughter who rides too, and all bets are off. 

Because I do not have to pay board, I am able to continue with my lesson program.

Thanks #1 trainer.

Thanks to good people, I can continue to train
while Jaliska is away.

Second, a friend at my barn has been letting me ride her horse a few times a week. It is a so great to have a horse to ride while Jaliska is away, I just can't thank her enough, but I will try.

Thanks Mindy.

Third, my Aiken trainer is letting me use one of her horses to take dressage lessons on at her Massachusetts facility. 

Thanks Adrienne.

Last, but not least, a very experienced riding friend of mine is letting me ride his amazing horses and along with it providing me with some pretty phenomenal instruction. Wow.

Thanks equestrian friend extraordinaire.

How lucky am I to have such great people in my life?

Very, I would say, very.
