Finally, Load your horse onto a trailer
The whole time you are being timed, lol and earning points.
It was so much fun, and a great lesson as to what you need to work on for next year LOL
Although Bear and I had to pass on the pond, and the tarp he also would NOT load onto the trailer. LOL
All in all we had a great time. It is so neat getting together with other riders and just letting loose and having fun. After the ride a dish to pass dinner was shared by all of us and there was even a bond fire.
