Horse Camp gets a thumbs up!

I heard about a trainer that teaches kids out on the east side of town, which means I don't have to cross any bridges or risk getting stuck in traffic getting to and from the barn.  So, we signed up for a three day camp to check it out.  It was pretty great!  Eleanor happily shoveled poop every morning!  (That was a beautiful thing for this mom to witness.)  If you're really interested, you can see a video of her trotting around on Belle here.
