How Chris is spending the Memorial Day Weekend

Saturday: Up at 5 AM, at farm by 6:15 AM. Load horse and arrive at show by 7 AM. Spend all day on horse show dad duty, which mostly consists of cleaning up after the horse, and moving heavy stuff on command. I did sneak a 15 minute nap in during the lunch break though. It didn't really help. We got home around 7.

Sunday will be an exact repeat of Saturday.

Pictures, results etc. will come later. I'm too tired to deal with it now. She did have a fabulous show today though - her best so far.

Stay safe this weekend.

Open or 4-h? In our area, parents are not allowed to do anything the kids can't do themselves.. including poop removal. Carrying heavy stuff only allowed if older kid can't be coerced into it. The most strenuous stuff I do at most shows is open my lawn chair.

I look forward to the pictures. They'll let me vicariously relive Days of Yore without the risk of straining something, getting stepped on, or getting heat stroke.

Thanks for performing this valuable service, Chris. :)
