Area VI Young Riders!!!

PACKED AND READY!

My morning could not have started off better! Ihop breakfast and a trip to Walmart. You are all jealous I know it! After that My mom taught Natalia before heading back to norther California. Chloe went on a nice relaxing trail ride with all her airplane buddies. The rest of the day was dedicated to loading everyones things into the trailer that will be taking us to the airport at the lovely hour of 2:30 AM. Who knew four riders could fill up a trailer with so much stuff!! Terry who owns the farm we are staying at has kindly offered to take us to the airport. 2:30 is not a pretty hour, an hour that should not exist in my book. A special thanks goes out to him! We packed, unpacked, packed some more and still have a bit more. A break was much needed!
About mid day Margie showed up and handed out more team stuff which was really awesome. We got all our team shirts, hats, jackets, and saddle pads it was ridiculously exciting! Then we faced the problem of more packing! Pizza was in order for dinner and then yet again another walmart trip. Lets just say I have been eating very well and they know me pretty well at walmart!
Chloe got another bath, poor gray pony! Of coarse it was followed by many carrots, a poor attempt to try and make her forget how much she despises those baths.
Tomorrow we are up at 2 in the morning and loading at around 2 30ish. I hear the airlines serve breakfast! Has anyone caught onto the fact that I really enjoy my meals. I do I do!!!
I hear the plane is also as freezing as the antartic. Its an odd concept to have to layer on all these clothes only to land in Kentucky to be greeted with 100 degree weather. Did I mention that part? I hear the humidity is equally as bad. Maybe then Chloe will like baths!!!
I know I keep saying this, but I am so excited! We have a great group of girls going and parents as well.
My dad arrived today in Kentucky at the horse park and made it in great timing! He claims that he gave my dog away to a kid at a gas station im choosing to ignore that comment. When I asked how it was all he could say was hot. I asked if it was pretty and he still responded "hot". I guess soon enough I will see that for myself!
Im off now to go and give Chloe one more walk before she sleeps and then my turn, after I pack some more of coarse!
Here are some pictures of the day
