Horse Judging....

Hey guys horse judging went well today, I was very disappointed with how the horses and facility was managed, one of the things that really grossed me out was that even though I wasn't close to their big round bales out in their pasture I could see they were black and moldy, good way to get your horses sick.... I think for the most part the horses did okay, there were a few issues, a horse accidently stepped on one of the handlers in a halter class and she handled it very nicely, from the looks of it, it was an accident, the horses in general seemed spooky and nervous some of the handlers were around our age, so maybe that had something to do with it, two of the horses obviously didn't like the bits they were ridden in, one was a tomb thumb (basically one of the worst and most harsh common bits out there that people think are okay, but infact are VERY harsh and bad for the horses mouth) the other was a very thin sharp twisted wire snaffle, if it had had a.thicker mouth piece with more rounded edges but that thing was sharp!! Anyways idk how I did individual, but our team got a silver ranking, I got to hang out with Erica a bit today and again tomorrow at colt, can't wait for it, I also have a little update story on that mare that wouldnt load but that's for a different post, maybe post a video or pics soon, a room tour is also comming up in a week or two.... I went swimming for the first time this summer tonight and had an AFV worthy moment, I told Roni that I would dive off the board for every time she dove off the side (she don't know how to dive) and while I was talking to her I just got out past the gutters when I accidentally fell off because I wasn't paying attention and just stepped right off the left side of the board so now my right leg looks even more banged up with the bruises from Jet and the mark from tonight, it was kinda funny lol I came up and laughed my brains out along with Roni and TJ I used to work at this pool, so I know the life guards, she hadn't seen it and asked what happend and we told her and she laughed at me too, I didnt get out but swam for a bit longer and when I got out ten mins later my leg started bleeding all over and the stupid thing wouldn't stop, but in the end it did and all worked out so we had a fun night I got to see one of my old friends brother who is a character, his name is Thrower, and some of his multiple nick names are Bowser (like Mario) trousers and pants lol he was actually born with only 6 fingers but you can never tell unless you look carefully, he's an interesting person that's for sure, but so is his sister, I havnt seen her in awhile, I hope I see her sometime this summer, have a good night all!!!
