my riding instructor


Many of you, from reading my blog, "know" about my instructor, Laura. Well, last week ... Laura and her horse, Oscar competed in their first Grand Prix. I still don't really understand all the scoring that goes with dressage, but from what I understand, they did very, very well.
Oscar is a horse that Laura foaled... raised and trained... and in case you might be wondering... he was born without a tail!!!! but that certainly doesn't have anything to do with his talent!!!
It is very unlikely that Tonka and I will ever ride to this level.... but it sure is fun to watch (and dream)....
