i know that many of you who have been at BE have met my friend carol. she has 
come with me to the show since my first year there, even though she was a 
self-proclaimed non horse person. she was somewhat fearful of them, but did all 
the work of cleaning stalls, hauling water, etc., when i rode.

last year, after our local horse expo, she decided to take lessons. i think 
what pushed her in that direction was linda syverson-kerr tossing her marcus's 
reins and saying hold him for a minute, will you? carol's thoughts were "hey 
wait, i don't know what i am doing." and then she went out to remedy that, not 
telling me until she was well into it. she now goes every week, and is 
cantering and has a fun instructor who works well with her.

she has come up to my barn several times for a lesson on oz, who has shown 
her just how stubborn a fjord can be. this time we were just riding, and she 
got 
him to listen, and then took her first ever bareback ride. he was a total 
good boy the entire day, and i am so proud of them both.

here's a link to their picture:

laurie, and oz, the lovely, whose new haircut has been described as looking 
like a piano (thanks carol makosky for letting me steal your idea)
