Silver Hills Horse Trials

Finally! we got to a show that wasn't rained out. Silver Hills is a venue NE of Austin, so it was a weekend trip. Set up and school Friday, show was Saturday.Weather was good and we enjoyed the small show and friendly atmosphere.
SaraBeth and Buddy put in a pretty decent dressage ride to place first in her division. Then continued her winning ways to jump clean and nicely in both the stadium and cross country. First place to them!
Kate and Nate put in a lovely consistant dressage ride to place 2nd in her division. Stadium jumping went great and cross country was just a ride in the park. They ended up in 2nd place.
Sarah and Archie put in a good dressage ride, placing 3rd. Sarah took the stadium carefully and slowly as they don't have much experience, jumped clean with some time penalties. Cross country went slow and careful again, and they got thru with a 6th place ribbon!
Sunday we stayed over to school on the jump courses. After playing a bit (and raising fences!) in the stadium we went out to the cross country and jumped just about everything out there. What fun!
