Just got back from an action packed weekend. I was planning to try and hit both the AQHA and APHA shows which were about 20 miles apart. Unfortunately things don’t always work out as planned.
I was really really disappointed with the numbers at the Jasmine Jubilee. First of all it was EXPENSIVE – I mean [...]

In case you did not know, Just For Pleasure announced that the funds for the 2008-2010 shows is gone. But oh no worries the 2011 money is all safe – just ask them!!!

I have always wondered how people have two families…you know the guy with a wife in Philly and a wife in Dallas. Well now I know exactly how they feel. I live that myself.
