Last Liberty Hill

This weekend was the last of the spring series of Liberty Hill dressage schooling shows. Wasn't as hot as expected, but Pam's umbrella helped bunches!
Tiffanye took Sundance, his first show in a long time. He was a star in the walk/trot test, getting some excellent scores. Not so grand with the canter, but that's true at home too! But not as bad as it's been in the past, so we deem it a success.
Amanda had a tough call as her usual mount came up lame at the last minute. Becky Snell generously offered her old campaigner for Amanda to ride and that turned out to be an excellent adventure. Amanda did amazingly well for only having ridden the mare a few times. Good showing girls!
Donna had some very nice moments with Santiago in the first test! But a long wait til the second test and Santiago wanted no part of it. Donna handled his little snit really well and managed to get through the test without a huge fight. That's so much better than before...
Pam and Beamer tried their hand at 2nd level, and came home with 2 blues and some very nice rides/scores.
Debra and Apollo did First level test 4 and won that one, dipped into 2nd level next and had a second to Pam.
Heidi and Cajun did 2nd level also, tests 3 and 4, and did a real creditable job. 2 blues for them also.
Fun to test yourself a little bit.
And the crown to the day was Debra's huge high point ribbon. She won the adult amatuer high point of the spring series. Now that's cool...
