Saturday's Horse Show :O
<span style="font-size:90">Well..I feel that the day was rather productive and extremely fun.(:<br>Now, as some of you know (since I've complained about it before xD ), Lucky kicks quite often and seems to truly enjoy kicking at other horses..but yesterday was a success! 
<br>Anywho, we drove about an hour and 40 minutes out to a horse show (left at 6.30 or so, I got to the barn around quarter after 5...in the morning). I ended up falling off my first run in the arena.. ;; (see image below) I signed up for exhibition barrels after thinking about it more (since I haven't ridden Lucky at a show before and BO had a snarky remark about me not signing up for it.<br>But..so my neck is swollen on the left side..and I'm not sure why. o.O and my whole lower back around where my belt was is sore as ever, and I'm betting it'll be a <span style="font-style:italic">nasty</span> bruise, haha.<br><img src="http://i53.tinypic.com/2m4rn1g.jpg"; alt="http://i53.tinypic.com/2m4rn1g.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>^--See me splayed out on the ground? xD<br><br>So..I ended up staying off and walking out to assess my injuries and if I had any..since I fell pretty hard on my back and I hit the back of my head..pretty hard too, lol. I ended up being fine (aside from being really sore and a slight headache), and they let me have another run without having to pay again. I went in and finished without knocking any or falling off again.(: LOL (see images below)<br><img src="http://i56.tinypic.com/9hmh3r.jpg"; alt="http://i56.tinypic.com/9hmh3r.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>^--Second barrel on my second exhibition run.<br><img src="http://i54.tinypic.com/o9qo74.jpg"; alt="http://i54.tinypic.com/o9qo74.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>^--Coming home on my second exhibition run.<br><br>And then there was my first barrel run.(:<br><img src="http://i55.tinypic.com/2cpargm.jpg"; alt="http://i55.tinypic.com/2cpargm.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>^--First barrel on my first barrel run.<br><br>And, I had planned on scratching my pole class..since I've never actually <span style="font-style:italic">run</span> poles before, but I ended up doing exhibition because Lucky's really good at them (even if I'm not, lol). I messed the pattern up a bit and missed two poles, but we got a 33 second.(: lol it's a horrible time, but atleast I left all the poles standing 
The picture is just a still of the video of my run..but either way.<br><img src="http://i52.tinypic.com/dq3nd5.jpg"; alt="http://i52.tinypic.com/dq3nd5.jpg"; class="bb-image" /><br>^--My take off for my exhibition poles run.<br><br>So, I had an amazing day, and I'm pretty sure I'll be leasing Lucky for the rest of the show season(:<br>And just a little update on Dude, the vet was suppose to come tomorrow, but they called BO and said that they would call on monday but they'd have to reschedule. ![:\](/forum/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
