Highlights

Tess 'n Lucy 'n Jill went to walk the course in the afternoon. There were no maps when they got there so they tried to draw one as they went along.

They found the course VERY daunting. Jill spent a lot of her nervous energy convincing Tess not to withdraw! Their teacher's student from another stable was so confident it made them less so.

Jill remembered the first night when she could see the big dipper as she turned her mount out for the night in the paddock behind the arena.

"I know the other instructor is mad at me and I know your partner is mad at me but I want to know if YOU want to know how it all went down?" Jill's mentor just asked if she had her riding clothes. And, promised to contact the student who got stomped on and electrocuted on Jill's very first day teaching there. The early report had not included THAT part...

The stars sure are nice in the country.
