We got in yesterday evening, and everybody settled in beautifully -- horses and humans alike. Apollo (once he got ON the trailer, the stinker) traveled like a champ. Camp is comfy. AR and I are at a hotel off site, which turned out to be a huge blessing for a variety of reasons (as well as a pain for other reasons, but those are resolved and happy now). Our resident European rode Apollo a couple of times yesterday, and Apollo was going SO well, so strongly, and moving big! Good boy! So pleased with him.
Here, have some pictures! I don't have time for too many words -- dressage starts at early o'clock tomorrow, and then XC in the afternoon for the Beginner Novice crowd. Busy day!!
