Coldwater Horse Show


What a great event, the Fall fair.
I have written elsewhere, that participating in a sport is a great way to keep fit.

For young and old, you need not be able to run a marathon. But these young people learn to respect their horses, their coaches, and learn discipline. There are many places where they do volunteer work to help the disabled learn to ride. You are so mobile on a horse!


Learning to dress well, grooming the horse, practice, practice, practice!



It is not an inexpensive sport, but then hockey isn't, either.


Fall fairs are a great way to celebrate the end of the season, look at the fruit, flowers and veggies, and so we headed off to the show.

Young and old have a grand time.

We travelled to Coldwater to watch my cousin, Darlene, in this show. It was so much fun.

We met Faye & Mike, who also competed at the horse show, at the Bracebridge Fair.
Darlene earned two 4th places in the show.

Mike, placed a first.



I love the photo below, as both horse and rider looked in one direction at the same time!


But the most priceless, was the sticker on the trailer!
