Jumping in the Rain

My word but it rained today...all day! Crummy and cold.

Taryn had a jumping lesson at 1:00 so we loaded two horses - hers and Marika's - in our trailer and headed out to Fox Bay.

Hannah was teaching today. We love Hannah. The jumping class before Taryns was running late. With the rain they had to haul all the jumps out of the field and into the covered arena.

It was a fun course for the girls to work on and the lesson went very well.

Next weekend will be a huge horse weekend with the Fox Hunt on Saturday and a Jumping Derby on Sunday. Gary will be in charge of both of these since I will be in DC.

I also want to report that I had no trailer drama this week, and even made two successful attempts at backing up. Yea me!

Gary spent his day working on the Ferndale development property. There are about 10 acres of grass that needed to be cut. He had rented a tractor and brush hog mower. There are also great expanses of blackberry bushes that need to be wrestled down out there. Quite a job.

By 2 pm it was just too wet to work there anymore.

We decided to go to church this evening and while in Bellingham accomplish some needed errands. Gary brot the Sequoia in for an oil change and we picked him up there for church. Don't ask him about this!

After church we attempted to do a Costco run but it was closed. Say what?? So we took Taryn for the first time to Billy McHales for dinner. Not such a big deal, but she was so excited to finally go there.

Then it was two episodes of 24. Yes!
