Westernaires is a precision mounted drill riding group, this blog was used to record my time at Westernaires. I leased a 21 year old quarter horse draft mix named Bo. Prior I rented and rode Stretch, Chey, and GoldDust. My teams were T1, J1 (Top Junior),White Star (Captain), Colorado Stampede (Captain), Nighthorse Rangers, Royal Rangers, Red Liberty, Red Ropes, White Vaulting, White Batons, Jr. Instructor, and Jr. Wrangler. I now ride on the Evergreen Drill Team since I graduated in 2017

White Rope Tack Swap Show
So today was really fun. It was supposed to be bareback Saturday for the Tenderfeet but it was cancelled for some reason. So I helped out in the morning as wrangler. Then I watched the T-1 ride, Red Trick, White Horse Romans, and had breakfast. Then ropes had costuming. We got changed into our costumes and tried out for tricks. In order to do them for show we have to have them really solid. I can do all so Danielle is just having me do a few so that I don't exhaust myself. So for this show she had me performing Handshake, Drag Accordian, Lay Down, and Double Wedding Ring. I finally got to be in the front row. It was great getting to preform in costume for a small audiance. We were in the white arena. We has our music playing and everything. It was fun. I also called the salute for some maneuvers. Then we put our costumes away and used the leftover time to practice. I GOT DOUBLE SPOKE HOP!!!!!! I was so excited and Danielle saw it too. It won't be show ready by next weekend but I will have it for White Olympics. So excited for White Star on tuesday.
