Settling In..

Today was all about getting everything in order and making sure the horses were getting settled nicely. Chloe looked good this morning, maybe a little tired but who can blame her? We took a long walk first thing this morning to try and beat the heat and I had the best time touring the place. Chloe was pretty calm and I couldn't believe how nice everyone at this facility is. It was hard trying to pick an arena to ride in, there were so many!!! Chloe then got a bath and got to relax in her stall. I hung up a couple fans that keep it pretty enjoyable for her! We got our tack rooms set up and hung the majority of our "Area VI" posters up. We also purchased a turn out so we kept rotating the horses throughout the day to graze and stretch their legs. I rode her again in the afternoon for another nice, long walk and I have to say the weather today was completely tolerable! The horses all look great and tomorrow we start lessons. I will try and get pictures of the barn isle and facility up tomorrow! I cannot wait for the competition to start!!! I Have been able to scope out some of the cross country and if i had it my way Chloe and I would just fast forward to Saturday! For now though we have checked into our hotel room and Natalia and I are hitting the hay! I hope you all enjoyed the airplane pictures and stay posted for more of the horse park! It truly is amazing...
Goodnight everyone!
Kelly and Chloe

AIRPLANE PICTURES!! (Start at the bottom to the top...)

Maybe this is why he runs away.....
The horses never touched the tarmac. They put a ramp through all the trailers. The horses would walk from the plane to the farthest trailer and when that was filled they would move to the second farthest and then the closest.

All of our stuff unloaded in Kentcuky. Are we having fun yet???
You can see behind Chloe the rows of other horses. They had three horses per row and a space to walk in front of each row. It was fun trying to guess what discipline each horse was
Chloe and her airplane buddy Sounder. They eventually had to put up a wall between the two. Chloe wasn't his biggest fan.
I got to be with her :)
Chloe in her airplane slot. They were about the size of a trailer slot.

Chloe planted her feet right there and said "no thanks guys" They were very patient with my clean stubborn horse
All of our stuff. We had to load it onto the plane ourselves too! We had a lot according to the pilot...woops
