My Kind of Congress

We zipped off to Columbus Saturday morning for a quick weekend at the Quarter Horse Congress. It's a three week, horse lovers paradise.

We sat mesmerized by the roping, cutting, and reining competitions, and we walked for miles through the vendor buildings, drooling over glitzy show outfits and saddles. 

Some of our more favorite competitions, like showmanship, horsemanship, and pleasure will be held in the coming weeks. But we don't have to be in Columbus to catch the action! The show is streaming live here.

I can amble around the show grounds in my boots, spurs, button-up shirt, and hat, but I know I'm an outsider. I'm a spectator; I am not truly part of this elite show club. It takes more money and time than I could dream of having right now. But someday. Someday, I want to use my talent with horses and get to the next level.
