(1.4) A Visit To The Summer Festival

The next day I awoke just as the sun start to rise.

My goal for the day was to get on Diamond for the first time.

 At first she was pretty hesitant to me.


But after a lot of patience I was finally able to mount her backwards of course. 

 As we started our ride I realized the situation I was in. I was ride a unbroke horse that had taken me two hours just to get the saddle on her.

It turned out my fears where unfounded for Diamond loved racing down the street.

Meanwhile Acorn was galloping around the pasture as fast as he could for he was determined to get his racing skill up to level four.

Of course with my luck it soon started to rain.



After about a two hour ride I decided that Diamond needed a break so we headed to the Summer Festival.

I think my clumsy trait is coming into effect here because for the life of me I can't figure out why I'm never able to mount or dismount.


Diamond was quite content tied to the hitch post. I made a beeline for the nearest food stall and ordered myself a plate full of chilly fries.

Back at home Acorn was celebrating his advancement in Racing.


I don't know what possessed me but for some reason I decided it would be a good idea to try rollerblading.

After an half-an hour of rollerblading I decided not to push my luck any more. So Diamond and I headed home.

At home Diamond seemed to have enough of me on her back as she duck close to a few branches of the tree.

Acorn and Diamond where quite happy to see each other again.


Acorn so lost interest in Diamond and he fell back on his favorite thing ever. Eating! I love my boy but sometimes I wonder if he dreams of being a pig considering how much he eats. He even got Diamond to start digging around the yard for treats.

While to horses were socializing I headed inside to cool off. Of course I manged to break the toilet but I at no time to fix it as it was time for Acorn and I to head to the show.

Diamond seemed quite put out that I wasn't taking her to the show. Though she soon forgot all about it as she chased a horse ball around the pasture.

At the show Acorn manged to place first! It might just be a beginning racing show but this is my first ever trophy.
