Ah, it sure is nice to wake up and not immediately dread the ice cold temperatures that inevitably await outside. Spring is officially here, I think we can safely say. I am more than ready to put this winter in the books as one of the worst I’ve ever seen, so let’s hope the spring and summer are among the best we’ve had to make up for it!
It’s a busy weekend around Eventing Nation, with big events running on each coast and plenty of others in between. Don’t forget, you can send your photos and videos from the event you’re at to [email protected]. Best of luck to all who are competing this weekend!
