Silverwood Farms Horse Show
On Sunday, Susan and I drove up to Silverwood Farms in Camp Lake, Wisconsin, to watch our trainer's horses in a show. Of course, I forgot to check my camera battery before we left, so I only got a couple of pictures before the camera died, darn it.
It was a sunny warm day, hotter than forecasted but lovely in the shade with a little breeze. Connie has 2 young warmbloods, Dalisco and Amor. They're both amazingly talented, especially given their ages and amount of training. Daphne, another trainer, rode Dalisco, riding level 4, tests 1 and 2 and got firsts both days. Connie rode Amor in some training level tests. And found out that, at least on Sunday, she and Amor were number 1 nationally in the USDF standings. Cool, huh?
Here's Daphne warming up Dalisco.
And here's Connie cooling him down after level 4, test 2. Geez, what a complicated test. It looked really hard to ride (remember that I'm a beginner and that even doing circles that aren't egg-like is hard for me, but this test looked HARD).
Connie always looks so elegant, doesn't she?
