Had a pretty good, if exhausting lesson today and came out of the ring feeling reasonably competent...and saw Co-Owner of Stable riding Pop Art in the outside ring. As Co-Owner and Pop Art are off the the Olympics next week, you can imagine that said riding was...impressive. Even if you didn't know what Dressage was, you'd know.

It took nothing away from my accomplishments. But lord, did it remind me of how long a road I've to go!

Will be offline for most of the weekend, so will take this opportunity to wish everyone in the US (and our expats) a good and safe Independence Day. Celebrate Appropriately-- Speak Your Mind!

And for those of you with a hankering for Stuff To Read, from [livejournal.com profile] wheatland_press:

From now until Monday July 7 (at midnight Pacific Time), if you buy any two Wheatland Press titles at the regular price, you'll get one copy of any volume of Polyphony free.

Just order as usual using Paypal and in the comment box of the order form for the second title, indicate which volume of Polyphony you would like to receive.

I might add, in passing, that while P1-5 are excellent volumes, Polyphony 6 has my story "Fire Rising in the Moon," as well as a bunch of other nifty and cool stories, and I won't be at all offended if you get it for free.... ;-)

You're planning on professional level competition?!

I could probably spend the day not riding ponies and just watching folks like your stables' Co-Owner and feel like I've learned enough to make it qualify as a lesson.

No, no...I know I could.
