Happy Thanksgiving! Illustration by Lindsey Kahn.
Happy Thanksgiving, Eventing Nation! It is with great pleasure that we introduce our shiny new series, Throwback Thursday. The chinchillas caught wind of the pesky hashtag (#tbt), and we thought we would run with it and make Thursdays a bit more entertaining. Since today is Thanksgiving, we will begin our Throwback Thursday series with a look back on EN’s Thanksgiving posts from years past. I stumbled upon one written by John in the early days of Eventing Nation, and it most certainly reminds all of us here at EN of how far we have come in a short amount of time, all in thanks to you. So sit back with your pumpkin pie and ever increasing sense of turkey-induced delirium and enjoy EN’s Thanksgiving Throwback.

Thank you all so very much and go eventing.”
