The Best Things About the WEG

Written by Katie Lindsay
The "C" words -
Canada - I heart underdogs! Shades of the Miracle on Ice in 1980. They weren't supposed to do it, but they did, Determination, focus, talent, lack of Ego.
Courageous Comet - I am the first to admit that I am totally "barn blind" about this glorious horse. He is everything I love about American Thoroughbreds. He and Becky are just flat out class acts.
Cool Mountain - Cool is the fitting adjective. Add intelligent, athletic,talented - and oh yes, a Thoroughbred.
Cross Country Course - Mike E. S. outdid himself. The less experiencedriders were able to complete thanks to intelligent black flag options. The top
dogs could run for time. As it should be!
The Costello Crew - What a gorgeous course Mick and his gang built,and what a superb Crash Crew (Yay! More "C's!") he put together. The only
green grass amidst the Kentucky Browngrass was on the galloping lanes thanks to Mick's ongoing watering and agravating.
The "J's"
Janie Atkinson who is the passion behind Rolex and WEG eventing, and for whom so many of us have spent hours and dollars volunteering our service. Thiswas her last hoorah. She leaves a hole in our hearts and huge shoesto fill!
Jimmy Wofford - If you've not read Jimmy's WEG blog, or anything else he's written, it's a must. "Blackberry Jam," Jimmy? Really??
