Greyfest, Part I

We woke up early this morning to go to  SEGC's Greyfest.  We've been looking forward to this for a long time.  The drive was nice and after about an hour and a half, we arrived at the Georgia International Horse Park in Conyers.  The park was built to accommodate the equestrian events of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.  In addition to Greyfest today, the park hosted the Georgia Quarter Horse Association Pro Am.

There's Mr. Deeds!








Truly and Maggie
get ready to
take their turn at
"Blur of Fur."









The "Blur of Fur," and Truly's behavior in it, is a story in itself.  For now, let me just say that we're hoping we're not banned for life from Greyfest!  More later.
I'll leave this post with the tranquil image of a Canadian Goose and her goslings traveling on the side of the road.  We saw them as we were headed home and just had to get a photo.

  1. Yes, I doubt we'll be invited back! Maybe if we promise to leave Truly at home . . . . .
