A Brief Respite


This morning, Dr. Becky and I are leaving the farm.
It is time for a girls' road trip!

We are heading to Lexington, Kentucky,
a 10 hour trip with a few friends,
for 
The World Equestrian Games
(of course just to watch!)



This year is the first year for this event to be held in the USA...
so it is a very exciting event....
one worth leaving the farm for
(just for a short while, though!)

We have tickets to watch Eventing and Freestyle Dressage.
What an opportunity!

We will return home on October 4th and have more 
"tails from the farm"
to share with you.

Until then, have a perfect end to your week!!
