The arena is still drying out from the flooding last weekend, so courses tonight were smaller than normal.  Then I wanted to make sure there was at least one course where there was no danger of slipping on the mud at all, and kept that one mostly to the top of the barn.  Which meant that you went through the same area multiple times, and it ended up just being confusing as heck.  It was pretty amusing, almost everyone got lost after the second obstacle, it didn't take long to get turned around!

So tonight was a challenge of the memory:

  

Looking forward to seeing some results tomorrow from nationals.  The 'international' course didn't seem very, well, international.  More like a normal USDAA course, so it will be interesting to see what the other courses are like over the weekend.  I'm hoping to catch the livestream of the steeplechase finals at least, I'm not sure if I'll be around for the others.  So everyone needs to make sure they AT LEAST get to the finals in steeplechase!


Poco is like, "WTF?"  Haku didn't quite know what to make of having a visitor in his x-pen when the delivery people were here today
