Starting off in January in Weirsdale FLORIDA at the Austin Park Carriage Museum Benefit, we then traveled to the ALABAMA Horse Expo where Princess Vettina Hagenslav made her debut (which also showed up unexpectedly on UTube!). In March we traveled again to the MICHIGAN Horse Expo and onto London ONTARIO for the Can Am Horse Expo. It was a good time and spending an extra week in Canada giving lessons at TJ Stables in Chatham ONTARIO was really special because I met Tony and watched him progress thru the week. In April we ended just down the road at The Midwest Horse Fair in Madison WISCONSIN. I did go to the Minnesota Horse Expo, but as a spectator. I enjoyed watching Curt Pate (Curt has always been a star in my life...he helped me in my first demo and has always been there to encourage me. He is a terrific trainer, but more importantly a positive human being. It was my first time seeing Sharon Camarillo and a very good dressage trainer that I am sorry I can't remember his name. I went to all their clinics and enjoyed them and their messages. Other clincs were hard to stay awake thru and it was a reality check for me...I have got to stay interesting in my own presentations and educationally informed.

In May I was a visitor at Mrs. Allyn McCracken's Bannockburn Farm in Patricksburg Indiana. The McCracken's are breeders of Belgian Warmbloods and have produced champion's such as CONCORD. I was there as a guest of TJ Clibborn who was starting all her youngstock. Highlights were watching TJ start and work with the horses...he truly is a gifted horseman also meeting the BWP/NAD approved and licensed Belgian Warmblood Grand Prix jumping stallion, Simsalabim Van Berkenbroeck and the opportunity to work my magic with a head shy mare!

In June in Wisconsin Rapids, we held a horsemanship clinic for the Saukville 4-H as well as performed both the Robust Rider & The Little Paso Fino Stallion with the Big Heart at the 10th Annual Central Wisconsin Bullriding Challenge, a benefit for the Children's Miracle Network for North Central Wisconsin.

In August TJ and I were a part of the ILLINOIS Horse Fest in Belevidere since 2000. In September we performed and held a clinic at The Paso Fino Nationals in Perry GEORGIA. At the ARKANSAS Horse Fest, we team worked with Larry Whitesell and Terry Tryon. After a brief layover in INDIANA we went north to the UP Equifest in Escanaba MICHIGAN. It was Widget and my second visit and TJ's first. We both did our clincs, my acts and TJ stepped in and MC'd their Colt Starting Challenge. There we met Rick Cornwell, a part of the challenge. In November TJ ended our year where I began in Ocala FLORIDA at the Florida Capitol Horse Expo! We had met the George Calhoun at Perry Georgia he liked what he saw and when Curt Pate had a family emergency and could not attend, they asked TJ to fill in. TJ was a hit and we are so thankful to PFHA for having us in Georgia and then to the Calhoun’s for giving us this opportunity! Mark your 2008 calendars, we will be part of the Ocala event November 21, 22 and 23!
