Hi World... It's me your friendly neighborhood Echo, sort of like Spider-Man only writerish and animal loverish Way cooler than any hero not Batman he is so much better than me. I have a lot of friends that love Batman and I really love him. Now for a recap of my awsome but cold and wet weekend.
Friday I woke up in full show and travel mode. Will the Captian of the adventure still had to work in Spokane and I still had to go off to school.. About ten I started to I get a little worried. We were appearing to be leaving at a good time... We were already running late. By after school I was freaking out... She still in Spokane at 2...That's a three hour drive.. And we had a border to cross...5 comes and she arrives... We figure out out we aren't fitting in her car... She washes her dog and we move stuff to our car. Then we leave. Stops in Tonsket put us into Osyoo's by 8.....Late way late.. Think fully we had easy border crossing. Or this would have been awful.
We end up at a store searching for dog food and breakfast... Here's were we figured out we went the wrong way.. The midway border way was much fast to the end of Kelwona we need to be on. Oh will send an email about us arriving late.. This whole Canada and no phone thing was going to be getting old fast. We finally got back out on the road. We drove on and finally reached Kelwona by 10. The another hour of driving placed us, Pained and Believing we were lost, at Heartland ranch our home for the weekend. Pouring rain and nasty this was the start of the three day long battle with the stormy weather.. Thankfully a nice lady waited up for us.. This first tent set up was bad. half the floor space wasn't there.
The next morning we got up and got ready. This incoulded me hiding in the tent with the dog so he wouldn't get wet will mom and Coleen were off finding Jordan. Then they can back and I got dressed to handle for Jordan. Then we went over and met up with Jordan. We got the dog's ready. I met Pipper for the first time. Maddie and I got to know each other a little bit more. I also got to say hi to my buddies Tala and Fidji.I go to met Coleen's dog's half-brother Rio as will. The we showed for the day.
First Coleen with Phoenix they looked awsome. Then Rio and his handler showed. The they went against eachother. Sadly Rio won that.My mom went with Pipper...It wasn't pretty. It was Pipper's
first show. the rain was still falling and the missable cold was great. Then I handled Maddie. We looked awsome and everyone was happy with how good she showed for me. We then had to show agia nest my mom and her fearfully friend. We won and had to go back in for breed. The trouble with that is I was suppose to handle Tala. We had figured Pipper would beat Maddie. She then we had a number dog handler mix up. My mom ended up with Tala's number and taking her into the ring. Jordan and Fidji won breed. They sadly didn't end up places get in group they looked so awsome however.
The End For Now

Flooded.... In A Sense
The morning is one of those sigh take a deep breath relax remember that it's all going to be okay mornings. That being in love is harder than anything else in the world but worth it. Second chances are worth everything. So for all that good in the world take them...I guess it's all for the best in this quest that is life.
My weekend was long and a little stressful. Okay a lot a bit stress full.. Let's start form the first part of the weekend. Friday, I ended up laying on the floor. Typing back and forth with a number of friends. Two different conversations with him at the same time. It's been normal for the whole time I've known him. 400 and something days.
Mom called me to go ride with them. I said I didn't really want to but then I said I would talk in three or four hours and left my room. I tacked up the horse.. He did walk away once. I forget to tie him. And my dads spooked and pulled back once. Then we started off one atampet at rearing. I avoided that easily becuase it's pretty normal. Then we rode on tell we were almost to the Y..... Here's were this gets crazy. Our Sasha went after the range cows.. This lead to my next great event. Once second my horse was on the road. The next second we were up the bank. I jumped off and leads him down and around the corner. Then back on my horse we started down the trail.
This is were the story has a good event. We took our first trot of a training level. Then we crossed the creek, low for this time of the year. Water has always been hard for Cody. He made a pretty good cross for the first one of the year. then we went to trot up the hill. he full out bucked. Hyper or upset I don't know. he never bucks I was pretty werided out by that.. Now we think my saddle may not be fitting right. I stayed on by doing the rein turning trick. then we trotted on up the hill. Then we waited for mom at the top. Then we weaved around the newly messed up top space. Then down the hill. then back to trotting. Not a fast endurance horse speed but a lazy out of shape horse speed. Then I got to lead on the next part of walking.. Then we took pound loop. We picked up a Trot across the places were we do normally. that hadn't been the plan but we did it becuase of the dog. We walked so mom's horse could rest. Then we hit the hill. Before that we noticed by saddle was loss...
I'll pick this up later.

Make It Rain
Good afternoon. Another rainy nasty cold wet missable day. We went out for a walk about in my fist period class. Up the hill to collect Lichen.. To the cemetery.. That's always sort of fun. We looked at plants. We soaked our shoes and socks.. I've spent most of the day bare foot now. Since it hurts to have a wet sock on a hurt foot My foot hurts so bad.. The wound is bad.
Little Purfect is so cute. I've spent a lot of time just watching her.Even just sleeping so is so cute. She also runs and frolics around. It makes me happy.
This weekend is the Great Dog Caper. I can't wait to see my friends. they will be so happy to see me too. We get to work hard but also have a lot of fun. That means I get to bath my dog. he happens to hate bathes a lot... That means I get to put on shorts and try my best to not get too wet.. Chances are I will get soaked by him anyway. Once he is all clean he will jump on the bed and soak my blankets. Leading to a need to wash them agian. It's his bed not mine. I mine a least that's how he and I see it. Since he countols were I sleep every night.
Have A Good Day

Life Gets Busy Agian
Good morning, It's a blue Ferry county day..... The weekend still fresh my mind. With it the loss of a baby duck I worked so hard to hatch. I will have more in 23 or so days however. I also had a new baby cousin born this weekend.
I also celebrated the the brith of our newest horse. She was born on Friday night. A bay filly with a long blaze. She looks like she will turn gray. She has one weird white ankle morning. Her name is Backwoods Purfect. A P name to follow in the mares line names. She is also purfect. She runs and frolics and plays. I had forgotten how much new baby horses sleep. She is so darling when she sleeps however,
This weekend is the Great Dog Caper. I can't wait to be with my dog 4-h friends. They will be so happy to see me. They will yell my name and hug me. The dogs will want to say hi to. Then we will be lunched into the craziness of the weekend. My dog should be up for it. Caper is the most fun part of doing dogs. I get to make new friends and play with my dog.
The next few weeks are packed with things. 4-h and family and trips. And ridding my horse. Maybe I'lll take my mini out for another jog when my foot hurts less. I peeled the skin off a blister. It is a heart shape. It hurts so badly right now.
Have A Good Day
