Back from the fair. Long, long, day.

Rocky still not right:(, not sure what the problem is, I'm calling the vet tomorrow, but no riding till we figure this out. He ran a pretty pattern, only about 1/2 second off the placing times, but he wasn't running, and when Jenny came up you could see him knotting up in his left flank. Still could be a sore muscle from the slip last week, or possibly an electrolyte imbalance.

She had to team pen on a horse she had never rode before, that had never seen cows, with another of her team mates that had never penned, so needless to say that was a bust.

Rocky is eating fine, and seems fine now again, but after the run, he did stand very quiet in the stall for awhile. Did not seem interested in the other horses around.

I had 2 corn dogs, and some fudge and taffy:), so not a complete loss:)

The rest was just a fair, that I've seen many times, so didn't do alot of sight seeing.

Jeepers.... sorry Rocky is off. Hope he recovers soon.

Hehe..... That sounds like quite a sight!

We're darn tired, but the horses are getting along a lot better. Talk in the morning!
