Returning to the WEG

It has taken over 2 weeks to recover from the intensity of the 3 weeks at the games.
It was amazing to watch the big boys ride to near perfection. The scoring on the other hand was a bit strange. I would love to know what they were thinking.....if the worlds best only receive 6 what are we mortals going to get.  I was very proud of Ravel and Steffen....the relaxation the horse shows is wonderful to see...especially when some of the top horses were clearly tight and tense.
I just loved Mistral, what a wonderful pair and so young.
The para's from all over were just amazing to watch. It makes you never want to complain about anything. What they overcome, there drive to persue something they love and there determination is something to behold.
Jen and Kranak did a fabulous job. I was a very proud Mon and coach. With the limited time they had together they performed like they had be together forever. Kranak is a master and gave confidence to Jen. She could trust him to go out there and try his best and his best was wonderful.
My son Justin & wife Becky Jo came to support Jen. It was a great reunion and fun was had by all.
Now we are looking forward to what is next.........
