WPCSA National Live Stream

Raise your hand if you like watching cute pony videos!  Raise your hand again if you like cheering for Connor relatives!

The WPCSA American National is being held in Tulsa, OK from today through October 1, and I'm so excited to report that Connor's breeder got to bring ponies for the first time this year!  Usually she's ring stewarding.  I would have been with her, but after I qualified for IDS championships, I chose to do that instead.  I'm sad to miss out on that adventure, but I've never qualified for anything on a horse before, and I'm really excited about that.

Even better iequine.com is live streaming the whole thing!  Four days of all sections of Welsh ponies doing their thing in hand, under saddle (English and Western), over fences, in harness, and even in costume with cute little kids.

    1. Mary got to run a course once when she was a CWD fitter and said it was insane. Like, up and down stairs on a hill and stuff. But she had fun. Yeah totally! And that same bodyworker is the one that broke Connor to ride and drive.
