Howdy!
Today was, unfortunately, our last full day at Sweet Grass! I
can't believe it's already almost over! Being out west has definitely been one
of my best vacation experiences!!! Everyone was so nice to us and it was so sad
that some of them had to leave today. Jake, Ben, Molly and their dad left right
after breakfast, leaving everyone definitely a little bit sadder.
Soon, our frowns were turned upside down when it was time to play
some Gym Kehena games (Gym Kehena, which is I think how you spell it, are
basically games you play on horseback)!!!! First up: barrel racing!!! This was
the very first time I’ve ever done barrel racing because I only ride English at
home. It was so fun and a little bit scary too!!!
After that, it was time for some old-fashioned spoon and egg
racing with real eggs!! It’s really hard to balance an egg on a spoon, in case you
didn’t know. It’s even harder on a moving horse!!! I think I might have one the
first time, but the second time I dropped my egg in the race to the finish!
Trotting makes it even harder to balance the egg!!!.... (unfinished)
