Sweet Georgia
I am in desperate need of a new laptop so I've been cleaning up all my photos on my old one before I decommission it. Doing this has been a fun jaunt through my past life, bringing up all sorts of fun memories. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to tell the story behind these photos! One of my favorite jobs ever was being the Equestrian Department Head at Camp Vega . The owners were great to work for and I always had the very best staff a head trainer could wish for. One of the challenges was that we didn't keep the horses year-round, we rented them from a local horse trader. These horses had seen hard lives - they are all purchased at the auction for ridiculously low prices. Most of the time through no fault of their own. When I went to select horses, I would get just a few seconds to assess them on the ground, and then a few minutes to ride them in a round pen if I wanted to. Over the 5 years I worked at camp, I got really good at assessing a horse's temperament ...
