I went riding with my friend this week. I interviewed her for this project after we were done, while we threw hay. We practiced barrels and loaded hay. She rode her finished barrel horse and I rode her boyfriend's horse that is in barrel training. We went to her boyfriend's dad's place (also one of my employers) and rode in the arena there. I buy my hay from them so after we rode we loaded up some hay. During the interview she talked about barrel racing, the importance of good horse care (mostly due to an experience we had last spring), tips for begginers and about her barrel racing experience.
This weekend I also attended a horse auction in Macon MO. I had a good time and worked on honing my horse-picking skills. Almost bought a young horse to make into a barrel horse, but I was good and came home empty handed. I was looking at the conformation, bloodlines, temperment and the overall horse. It was a good time.
