Barrel Racing Finals


(In this picture I was so fast I
was like a blur!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)



Today was our last barrel racing of this series, so now comes the bigger ones. If anyone one wants to donate to the Sara for Barrel Racing Fund, please let me know. There is probably a barrel racing every weekend from now on, so donations would be appreciated! :)
Anyway Chance and I had a good barrel pattern, not as fast as last week, but a decent pattern with lots of room for improvement. I have really gained a lot of confidence riding her and we are working better as a team, which I guess was my goal from the beginning (well .....that's what everyone says when they don't win any money). I was extremly happy with my Pole pattern. Not only did we not knock down a pole for the first time in a while, we finally broke the 22 second mark with a 21.......I forget. It was much better though!
Sheryl and Gypsy, coming off an incredible barrel ride last weekend (wooohoo 15.8 and who cares if you knocked down a barrel!), did not knock down a barrel and got a 16.1! And they didn't knock down a pole!
Now that this series is over I think Sheryl and I can agree that we've both learned a lot, have met great people, and had fun! And now I'm super tired and can hardly type so enjoy the pictures!!

zmWhat a great season this was! We both improved so much in the last few months!! I love the pictures you have posted...what ever happened to the pippy-long-stockings one of me around 2nd barrel? I couldn't seem to find it. -Sheryl

That picture is quite amazing! I'm impressed with how the photographer was able to balance the lighting while providing simulated speed aspect through a long aperature opening. Magnificent!
Give him my congratulations/
