Today my daughter, the eventer, began riding two horses a day. It won’t be for long. Our season here in Area 1 of the USEA (which is all of New England and New York) ends in less than a month. Our last event will be Snowfields Horse Trials because it is literally just around the corner from our barn. It is the only chance during the show season for my daughter that her friends actually can come and watch her “do her thing”.

But this blog was about two horses. Our friend is starting a new job and is unable to attend any more events this season. And without thinking, I mentioned possibly my daughter could take her horse for a run at Snowfields, too. Just to keep him going a little longer. Much to our surprise, she said SURE!

What does that mean for the Eventer Mom? An extra hour at the barn, an additional entry fee, but one very excited daughter. Especially since her trainer said she is ready to move up to Preliminary next season.
