Rob and Helen went to the Capital Area Quarter Horse Assoc. Open Horse show is Austin. Helen participated riding Max and placed in every event she entered . . . again!!!! This is really good news because this show is a "step" above what she's been entering and though she didn't win any blue ribbons, placing at all is a big win! The big surprise of the day is she won a buckle for novice high point at the end of the show AND a $125 jackpot!!!!
Just to remind you . . . high point is won by the cumultive points associated with the placings won in each event. I think because she enters so many events using one horse, she gets high point without having to win 1st or 2nd place every time! Strategy!!!!!!!
She had her picture taken and it will be on the CAQHA web page - I'll let you know when.
Unfortunately, I was home sick . . . I mean REALLY sick and couldn't be there. I called every few hours though to see how she was doing.
Wizard also went for the day, just to see and be seen! We're trying to sell him and it helps to get him to these shows in case someone is interested. We have had one person ask about him from the web page on him and she wants to see him this weekend. Keep your fingers crossed!
News about Jonna . . . this weekend Jonna is trying out for Region Choir. I'll be there chaperoning, so I'll know right away how she does. Pray for her!
