Hi Raunchy,
I've noticed that these sattvic kids have incredible support of nature.  
Anything is possible for them.  I know of one FF family whose daughter loved 
Irish step dancing.  There was a famous teacher of it in Chicago.  But somehow 
it all worked out and the daughter ended up training with that teacher on a 
weekly basis.  Anything is possible.

Gee, sure wish she could train in Des Moines. It's two hours from Fairfield and 
super expensive. The only way to train there is to live there. Gabby moved 
there from her family in Virginia Beach when she was only 14 years old. 
Juliette isn't at that level of performance yet, someday maybe. She's currently 
training four days a week in Fairfield. It's quite enough for now. Gymnastics 
has been a wonderful self-confidence builder for her. She works hard and is 
progressing nicely. We just hope she stays motivated enough to get a collage 
scholarship. 

Her first intra-team competition was two weeks ago. She won 1st All Around, 1st 
Uneven Bars, 1st Beam, 2nd Vault and 2nd Floor Exercise. Beam video: 
http://youtu.be/lNdWwl4oYpo 

As you can see the Fairfield Parks and Rec gym where she trains is way too 
small. Considering the limitations of the facility, I give her coach a lot of 
credit for starting from scratch with just a few beginners and developing their 
skills as well as he has. Links to more videos and team pictures are on 
Facebook: Gymnastics Fans of Fairfield Iowa.

Thanks for the blood in the water reference. Hungary kicked Russia's butt and 
won the gold. Very cool story. Found it on Wikipedia. FFLife doesn't have a 
very deep bench for team sports, but we do have one notable pair of slippery 
teammates we should sponsor to win the gold for a sport best described as 
Fellatio on Ice: http://youtu.be/JBh_k2ieM84

Gee, sure wish she could train in Des Moines. It's two hours from Fairfield and 
super expensive. The only way to train there is to live there. Gabby moved 
there from her family in Virginia Beach when she was only 14 years old. 
Juliette isn't at that level of performance yet, someday maybe. She's currently

Good God Gabby!  That smile on her face at the end!  That total being in the 
zone.  Goose bumps just watching her.  The sound of the crowd clapping.  The 
unity of it all.  Wow and wow and wow and wow

I remember some moments of total being in the zone when I played softball.  
Yeah, God in the body...

Dear Raunchydog,

So glad there is some FFL poster who is watching the Olympics and saw the 
glorious performance of the irreisistible and celestially bouncing Gabby 
Douglas--what a beautiful creature she is. There is no form of athletics which 
asks so much as does gymnastics does--not even the Decathlon.

I like that someone in the world felt the sensations that I did in watching 
Gabby's individual performance--and would communicate this on FFL.

Does this mean that your granddaughter knows and trains in the same facility as 
does Gabby Douglas?

Well, I will remember you tonight, Raunchydog, when I watch the NBC coverage. 
Bob Costas, the Jesus Christ of sports announcers, I figure. But all the NBC 
colour commentators--for swimming, for gymnastics, for volleyball--they are all 
superb.

We might, here on FFL, have the basis of a water polo team--you know: all that 
blood in the water left after the Hungary and Soviet Union match in 1956.

But Share refuses to pull anyone under the water and smash at them with her 
fists. The rest of us know the rules of water polo and play the game as hard as 
it has to be played here in the FFL pool.

To be an Olympian, might be the best experience anyone can have of physical 
achievement--and something well beyond that.. Did you see those US women eights 
row to victory yesterday?

The Olympics in London, there has never been anything like it. And the 
highlight for me is the performance of the US Fab Five--and Gabby especially.

Enough. Enjoy Lake Huron.

Robin

Thanks so much Raunchy, unfortunately in Canada I can't see it but others in 
the States can. Anyone who loves power, balance, grace, harmony and 
non-prissiness will love Carl's ride on day 1 in the Grand Prix here that 
Raunchy kindly posted. Now THAT is a horse, balls and all.

I'm on vacation in Michigan, just north of Oscoda on Lake Huron, haven't posted 
much. I've been taking long walks on the shore, toes in sugar sand, enjoying a 
nice breeze coming off the lake, just relaxing and visiting family. In the 
evening I've had eyes glued to the Olympics, women's gymnastics, swimming and 
beach volleyball. 

All glory to gymnast, Gabby Douglas! Fabulous! Only 4'11, just a little bit of 
a thing, but, oh what a powerhouse. She won gold for Women's All Round. Number 
one and best in the world. Gabby trains in West Des Moines, Iowa. My 
granddaughter, a budding gymnast, love-love-loves her! 

Here's Gabby's winning Floor Exercise:

The precision and years of training required of a gymnast is every bit as

watch.

Can you imagine a 20 minute Grand Prix Freestyle with eight horses? 
That's the nature of the Quadrille  a "classic horse ballet" the 
"longest of its kind in the world" the standard to which all other group
performances are measured!
If you want  and i have time later i may  write you some few quick 
definitions  descriptions (Volte,Pesade,Passade,Classical piaffe,Trot 
Work,Canter Work etc.as well as Young Stallions, the Pas de Deux, and 
the Long Rein solo)by friend of family and mentor world famous (The 
Miracle of the White Stallions)Col. Alois Podhajsky, Director of the 
Spanish Riding School from 1939 to1965.
Remembering  these in his own passionate words could be a sentimental
journey back into a long gone area.
In the mean time just enjoy with open mind  these first.

(For  awoelflebater :October 15, 2008. Spanish Riding School in Vienna 
two young ladies, a 21-year old Austrian and a 17-year old British 
woman, were the first females in a very long time to be allowed -in 
revival an  old tradition-to ride in the famous baroque Winter Riding 
School. Until approx. 100 years ago,the end of the Austrian monarchy, 
only the ladies of the Imperial Court were permitted to regularly take 
part in the so called Riding Festivals and Carousels)

Poor Robert. Who has broken your balls? Just watch the power, the grace and the 
beauty of this dear boy...You don't get these kind of performances if the horse 
doesn't want to do it. A long time before they hit Grand Prix they would have
