Not the smoothest of surfaces overall, it has a lot of very shallow pockmarks, but I like that because it makes the horses think a little more without stressing their bodies overmuch.Liz Stouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267806576736655184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543945977774319437.post-90821575795734866022017-10-27T11:12:23.044-04:002017-10-27T11:12:23.044-04:00Bahahaha.

I am actually toying with the idea of just signing up for Open Elem and having fun at the last one (Same dressage test as Intro) since we arent really ready. Hmm I asked Sally and said would people wonder why i dropped down. And she said LOL Michele we are too old to care what people think. Do what you want to do. STILL DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO but i laughed at that. Otherwise I didnt sign up for the CT this weekend (Supposed to be 110 percent chance of rain and cold eFf that). SO yes we all been there. I hope you have fun in the sun somewhere and you dont get too much snow!!
