The Monday RACE

After work yesterday Karin got a group together to go racing. It was Karin Meister on Mika, Rebekah Davidovics on Anni, Anni Davidovics on Bunni, Bethany Reinhard on Knight, Hannah Reinhard on Paris, and Caleb Sauder on Walker Sally. Monica Fritzenmeier on Ylse and Sandy Fritzenmeier on Sangria took off for some schooling as they and those horses are not really into racing. Their first race was up the cabin hill and amazingly enough Bethany and Knight WON! Knight was kind of sneaky squeezing by all the big horses and shooting up the hill. Bethany got the prize for that race. When they got to the 50 foot strip the bean field next to it was being harvested and there was a truck parked kind of in the way. Karin talked to the farmer and told him they were going to race so he moved off to the side. This one was more competitive and the kids were out to WIN. Mika came in first with Bunni a close second. Karin said the adrenaline was flowing and the horses were kind of hard to stop so they ended up in the bean field. good thing that section was already harvested. We love the fact the kids had a great time, the horses had a great time and both didn't realize they were getting an education. Karin made the comment that what is really Amazing is there is enough tack for that many horses. We forget to be thankful for small things and having enough tack is actually a pretty big thing. We could always use more saddles and bridles so if anyone out there is getting out of horses and has good used equipment reasonable we would probably be interested.
