Animal Stampede

Yes, you read it right. today while we were walking the horses and zebras to practice, the zebras got spooked and took off running in all directions- towards the freeway, up the streets. three horses got freaked out as well and followed. we were able to get all the animals back safe, only one guy was kicked in the knee- it took about 45 minutes to round them all up again. check out our news story: http://www.gazette.com/articles/zebras_23658___article.html/children_girls.html

other then the eventful morning- today was great. during my break i went horseback riding in the mountains- so beautiful. we didnt have a guide- we just went up and down the mountains, through trees ( i have about a million scars), and through ponds. it was a fun time, but my behind sure did hurt after 2 hours on one of those guys! we had a 730pm show- Taba let me run the horse out of the ring again. yay! tomorrow is a 3 show day- very tiring, but we get free meals :)

well- im exhausted- i stayed up drinking last night and only had 4 hours of sleep. time for bed.
