We've been at the Rose Ranch show for the last few days. Rose Ranch has lots of rose bushes and lost of blowing dust- I don't think I've ever been so dirty! Shannon and Rocko were great on Thursdayin the 98 degree heat, doing fun equitation courses that had crazy turns. Today Rocko was cranky and spunky- not a great combination, but Shannon held him together with her super-strong legs long enough to make it through 2 rounds. For her, it was a bit like riding a lit rocket! :) So, Rocko went to Time Out, which means he had to run in circles for a while until he got tired. Then they came back to get a nice score of 74 in the HCHH medal, which ended up as 4th place. I really proud of Shannon!
