Breyer horse ride still coming!

Update: This week Lily had her lesson here instead of at the barn where the Breyer horse is and where I'm going to take my little ride. I think it will be next week before I get to ride.

I'll see the Breyer horse owner tomorrow at the show. (Breyer horse is retired and won't be there.) I hope to get more of the story plus set up an exact date for my little experience.

I just bought the Breyer model on e-bay. I think I'll get it autographed. How silly can I get?

I'm also trying to get the local paper to let me write up the story on this model horse, but haven't gotten a commitment yet. (Or a rejection.)

But let me drop some more hints: she is one of two of her breed made by Breyer, according to their web site. The other one is a small model.

The horse show is tomorrow. Buddy is probably out there rolling all the clean off of him. I let Lily do all of the tack cleaning, horse cleaning, boot polishing and mane pulling. It's a combination of laziness on my part justified by a belief that children should do all they can by themselves. Now. If I could only get her in bed.

The Coggins and the Oreos are in the car. Now I need to go charge my camera battery. And recharge my own batteries. It will be a long day.

Wish us luck, or at least, that Buddy and Lily will have fun and do their best, and that everyone will be safe and have a great time.

please fill in the equine equivalent here of "break a leg" because I'm sure THAT can't be right! Go Lily and Buddy!
