WHAT A GREAT WEEK! Starting off with perfect weather followed by being able to order off the menu lol. Betty’s kitchen was on fire with all there great food and my world famous salads. Thank you Christy Balch. Followed by a great center ring crew headed up by #1, bill Waller, Belle Hufferd and my boss lady Kelly Kraegal. Greg O Kelly got his first taste of the northeast. Hopefully he didn’t get scared off. Great job my friend. Latitudes aka The Devils den was rolling sorry Shane the night I showed you left early. I was supposed to get dunked didn’t happen ugh WTG John Lam my only saving grace was Plus one and the Queen of the Nation. Well the Sterling hospitality tent was awesome as usual V Vodka ! Leave it to Ralph to find the headquarters but believe it or not it was in a church lol true story. Omg Keith The Fighting Lobstah Friday didn’t drown in dunk tank lol but did get his claws into David Cater. My weeklong photo shoot with Shane went incredibly well sorry, Pj lol but you will agree. The best picture of the show was Emma Von Ballimos She is so photographic.😡😂. And that saying a lot from the selfie king.🤳
😂 omg iced tea #1 and Shane are amazing how much of that stuff they can drink . I’m positive, but I think the judges got along really well during the show and after the show, lol I guess you had to be there which Shane and I were not. Second day number one says I’m taking my coat off and so aren’t you Parker? Lol I did 😳. Sorry about our lunch date Lori had to eat and run so I could make another unexpected but very welcomed lunch date I imagine it’s gonna be a while before you let me live that one down. Blue lobster 🦞 ? Yup. Kelly was the best stick horse judge ever and even got to go for a ride. Northern Mexico 🇲🇽 own sure knows how to show up. Only Shane could get me to wear camo not gonna lie. The hat was pretty bad ass. Let the record show and Shane Shiflet. I did make it to the devils den Saturday night and I got there before Shane who knew. way to go Casey by exposing me as I was trying to slide out. OMG I almost forgot sorry Danielle Niedlinger. She complemented my tie during the lead line walk in trot and when I told her the whole Shane Shiflet story about how I got this tie, her heart almost stopped and tears almost started rolling just before it was time for her to go trot. I probably should be careful where I tell that story probably not in lead line. anyWho, another great year at the New England Morgan horse show can’t wait for next year.
