While Jaliska is making progress while being trained in Aiken by Adrienne, I have been fortunate enough to be able to continue my Quest with my own training.
My #1 trainer waived Jaliska’s monthly board while Jaliska is away in Aiken, as he was able to fill her stall with another boarder. This is a huge help, for to say the horse business (from leasing, to owning, to boarding, to training, to shoeing and showing and of course not to forget the biweekly “lessoning,”) is expensive is an UNDERSTATEMENT at best! Throw in a daughter who rides, too and…. yikes.
Since I don’t have to pay board, I’m able to continue with my lesson program. Thanks #1 trainer!
Second, a friend at my barn has been letting me ride her horse a few times a week. It’s so great to have a horse to ride while Jaliska is away. I just can’t thank her enough, but I will try.
Thanks Mindy! You’re the best!
Third, my trainer in Aiken is letting me use one of her horses to ride in dressage lessons at her facility here in MA.
Thanks Adrienne!!
How lucky am I to have such great people in my life? I would say that I’m extremely lucky and blessed. Thanks everyone for helping me work toward my goals and providing constant encouragement.
