American Eventing Championships are in full swing down here in Texas. It’s been a great weekend, and I must give a big shout out to the organizers, volunteers, and staff who have made everything possible. The USEA has also been running a great media operation, and I have been lucky enough to have an air conditioned media room to work out of thanks to them. I also must thank the competitors who have been so kind as to let me take a few moments of their time to catch up over the last couple of days.
