We have received close to 5 centimeters of rain in the last few days! That is 2 inches for your old folks out there. Or half a hand for the horsey set. That is a lot of rain. Meaning a lot of MUD!
And of course it is raining right now too.
Oh well, the farmers, frogs, and farriers should be happy. All this rain will hopefully give crops a chance, refill the wetlands, and soften horse hooves. Who likely isn't happy is the horse show organizers running the Jump for Hope show at Amberlea. I guess it is a HUGE show this year so I hope the rings get some chance to dry. I imagine it would be physically painful to watch their new Grand Prix ring get chewed up in the mud; they have done such a lovely job improving the show grounds so hopefully it all holds up under this rain.
Speaking of riding rings...please stay off the outdoor ring here until it has time to try. It is hard on the base when it is wet as it is still a fairly new ring.
