Last Night in Sacramento

I had three good rides this morning on the horses and then we went touring around Sacramento for a few hours. The horses love it here and are really enjoying their turnouts and chowing down on the grass. In the evenings we sit in gazebo by the arena and eat dinner while watching the horses in their turnouts. The weather here has been great. Sunny and warm in the daytime and then cool at night.

Tomorrow morning we hit the road first thing for L.A. We are hoping the traffic is alright and we have heard there is a bunch of construction on the interstate, but we are crossing our fingers the drive doesn't take too long. We are hoping to be at the Flintridge show facility early enough so I can get the boys into the show rings Wednesday afternoon. The Flintridge show is much smaller than originally anticipated due to the EHV and many barns being closed. There are still a bunch of big names going to be at this show, such as Jan Ebling, but Steffen has closed his barn, so unfortunately no one from Arroyo will be there. It seems likely that the next few shows in the area will be cancelled because of the virus. We are all actually very surprised that Flintridge hasn't been cancelled. We are happy to hear that it isn't though! Hopefully Oslo and I can keep everything together and actually play with the big boys down here! Fingers crossed the facility doesn't look anything like Del Mar!

It has been a relaxed couple of days so I don't have much else to report. I cannot believe we leave in less than a week for home. It has all been going so fast!
