The Sun Shines








Gypsy gold does not chink and glitter. It gleams in the sun and neighs in the dark.

Saying of the Gladdagh Gypsies of Galway








Tuesday already! I've been dog sitting and haven't had access to the Internet, so, of course I'm behind on everything. However, a wire-less yesterday was so refreshing, spent all day working horses, in real life, no high speed connections, except with Ace who is really getting into cones with a little too much passion.

Villa Louis Carriage Classic is a couple of weeks away, and the signs are beginning to show. My new client is dreaming about courses and classes. Ace is slick and shiny, buff and beautiful. New dash, fenders and seat for the gig are finished and ready to be collected. It is very exciting and I look forward to the last show of the season with great anticipation.

It is also a time to get together with fellow competitors. In all my horsey experiences, carriage driving folk are the best. We share experiences, tips, sometimes harness or spares, stories and much camaraderie.

It also signals the end of summer, which is bittersweet. But this year as our soil rests, I will be busy working on several new and exciting projects. Watch this space for details!

More later in the week, must go work the 'show ponies' and savor the last days of summer. For you, I wish the same.
