Is it just me or was last week the longest week in the history of long weeks? I don’t know what caused it to stretch on so long, but man am I ever glad it’s over. This weekend is sure to be a blast with so much stuff to do all over the country. I’m not fully recovered from last weekend’s insanity at Horse Expo, but there’s no time like the present to get out and do things. Speaking of weekend fun – if you’re headed to Surefire Horse Trials, there is a Horse Show Dad award both days in honor of Tim Icke! Competitors can to nominate their dad at the Secretary’s booth to win a great prize and honor Tim, who was one of the greatest horse show dads ever.
