This week we went down to Columbus, Ohio to the Equine Affaire, a big horse and trade show, where Best of America by Horseback (BOABH) had a booth. We wanted to meet some of other staff and riders who would be on the trip.
It was fun to get acquainted with Bob, the logistics manager for the trip and his wife Esther who hosted a dinner for everyone at their home in Columbus. Mark, the CEO of BOABH and his wife, Brenda, were there from Texas, y'all. Mike, assistant trail boss, and his wife, Wanda, from Alabama came up to be at the Equine Affaire, as well.
I learned how to operate the camera while Tom Seay, host and producer of BOABH, interviewed the president of the Ohio Horse Council. There was a little studio set up in their booth for short interviews that would used on the show. Hopefully, there will be more opportunities to run the camera in the future.
By the way, I forget to mention that about a month ago we met a couple who live about 4 miles from us who are going on this trip, Sandy and Wayne. They will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this year by riding their horses 1800 miles from Mexico to Canada. We heard them tell someone that they have never been on a vacation before. This is quite a first vacation! They are pig farmers and never felt they could leave home before. I'm happy for them. Their kids and grandkids will be watching the farm while they're gone.
Only 9 days until we leave for New Mexico.
