I bet the key word in that sentence is AWFUL....

I did the "crewing" more for me than for the kid.  I wanted to stay involved 
with my kid's first ride as much as I could.  Sorry if you don't approve of 
my methods.

do!<<


Well, I could not disagree with you more on this one.  It was Samantha's 
idea, totally on her own, to do what she did at the vet check area with her 
farrier.  And both the girls cried constantly when they thought they weren't 
going to be able to finish or get a completion.  Maybe it's a Southern thing 
Louise; I hear you Westerners are much tougher.

cya,
Howard
