Horse Shows

I was away at a horse show this weekend. Had a great time, as always. Iv been involved in the horse show business since I was about 11, when I would go to every major quarter horse show in sweden. I would bring a tent and spend all day just sitting in the warm up pen watching my idols train their horses. A few years after that I had my own horse to show, that was even more fun!

I would get up at 5 in the morning and be preparing and getting everything ready for hours. Iv been at more horse shows than I can count and I still love every second of it. Some of my best and oldest friends Iv met through these shows. Iv gotten jobs for horse trainers at shows and Iv spent birthdays at shows. Its a home away from home.

Bökeberg Arena in southern sweden, the best show grounds in sweden.

I celebrated my 20th birthday at a show at Bökeberg earlier this year

Im off to germany tomorrow, new cities to see, new people to meet. I will also make time for a week in the netherlands this time. I have a cousin who lives in Amsterdam that I didnt see in a long time so I am really looking forward to this trip!
