Today was a fabulous day....I don't mean to imply that our class room days are not fabulous, the two are completely unrelated....I swear. Today we spent the entire day in Fort Collins at a local dressage farm. Sara did a couple of massage demo's on some beautiful horses. It was great to watch her work and see her technique, also the difference that massage makes on a horse. Look at this beautiful girl - Sudi.
In the afternoon we had a rhythm class. Wendy Woo, an extrordinary local artist, helped us find our groove. We studied the gaits of the horse and how it relates to rhythm...I think every class taught in the world should be as fun as this one was. 
It was fabulous...have I said that yet? I just checked our "homework/massage schedule" wall and it looks like I'm sitting O.K in the homework department, and I'm not scheduled for a massage until tomorrow so I'm going to head on down to the common room and meet some class mates and watch Grey's Anatomy. It's hard to believe I'm only watching one hour of T.V a week (I think that's a good thing). This week has flown by, I can't believe it's Thursday already......yikes.
Here's a shot of Joe and I. I think I'm going to have to break down and buy a funky cowboy hat. This means I'll have a slightly used Tilley Hat for sale. Be sure to come back to blog for a 50% off coupon.
That's it for now. Still waiting for care packages and tuition donations......very disappointing people.

see you tomorrow!
I think Dad would be interested in a Tilly. I seem to recall one of his floating up stream ahead of him while he cried "swim boy" to Jake...lol.

Ahhh...the dreaded French River rapids and mutiny trip.. Still waiting for the finder to send my hat back. May need to dredge the river.
I offer $7.50 for the smelly used Tilly hat.
Hope today is as joyful as yesterday Jessica. Sounds very very interesting apart from the fact that you make everything fun & interesting. It is great that you stay so absolutely positive. Do the horses get to vote on the Ms. Congeniality award? Keep well and don't be lonesome in the saddle.
Smelly tilly hat? Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm, think I'll pass. The Smell might need though - you know, to sweeten his odor (Sorry, Gabe - couldn't let it slide).
Awesome shots of the horses! Remember: "Save a horse, ride a cowboy" - lol!
