Be a good color for an Arab that actually was in Arabia. ;-)And another feature on Arabs in Arabia is even under that white hair, they have black skin (you can see that on her face) so they don't sunburn. Light horses of other breeds that have pink skin will sunburn on their noses where the hair is thin. Purebred Arabs in the Arabian desert, they really prize horses with no white markings or pink skin, particularly on the face.
Finally made it to the fair today. It poured again last night and the parking lot was a real mess. Good thing I have 4-wheel drive. At least there is pavement on the mid-way and gravel around the barns. It was so hot today (90's), I felt bad for all the animals and kids having to dress up.
A couple of shots of the hitch classes I watched. First one is the unicorn hitch.
This was a pony hitch. They were really neat.
Dakota, a boy in my daughter's 4-H club riding PJ. He won the revolving Western Pleasure Trophy. He also won the revolving trophy in Western Showmanship.
Alison and Dakota in Lead-Line.
There were about 30 kids in Lead-Line and they all received blue ribbons.
Amy and Dakota showed in Generation Gap Horsemanship. Kids ride first one way of the ring (walk,jog, lope), then they switch to the adults.
