Hi All, July has been a very busy month for me. We love it at Circle P. The footing is wonderful. We are starting a monthly get together for everyone at the barn and Pinky is doing the prelim work to get all of the info together on what evenings each month we will have it. It has been hot in all of San Diego county but it is very nice in the afternoons as a cool ocean breeze comes up as the barn and arenas are on top of a big mountain. The views from up there are great and on a cool day you can see the ocean. The horses are coming along nicely and we are looking at starting the show season next year in Dec. The horses are all ready to go. We want to put a few final touches on and solidify a few things and then we are off and running. I am headed to AZ for a few days on horse business and then next week to Colorado to do my monthly clinics. We have 2 people looking for nice amateur horses at about 3rd level. If you are reading this blog and have something, PLEASE give me a call. Our budgets are fairly low but we really just want something very quiet but forward. We don't need size either. So....if that helps. Back to work!!!! Happy Riding! Cheers!
