Having the day off..and remembering Bailey's longing look at the horses we drive pass to get to the park,I remembered that yesterday was show day at Libby's home,Roundtop.It is a one day - all day affair. Bailey was excited and thought Heaven had come to him in trailers and horses.He welcomed friends and strangers alike as long lost relatives. those he didn't run up to came over asking permission of me to greet him! I talked to Jean who was with her daughter, Erin who was competing..caught up on most of the news in the horsey world of Colorado. Liz asked me if Heidi were here because Leo was competing...no, Heidi was pouting a little as her HT had been cancelled in VA due to the constant rain and storms..making the footing dangerously soft and slippery for the horses.... Here it was a sunny but terribly windy day to start... one could see the clouds coming in and hoped that the storm would not blow in until everyone had ridden all three phases of the competition...it was not to be..Showjumping had to be stopped after Training division had finished.I was in time to see Leo in Dressage..The wind was so gusty that a lot of the horses were having some trouble with it distracing from their concentration as it blew hard around their faces....
