Below is a post I found that was never posted once I arrived in PA to train with Ollie for WEG. It was an awesome experience and I will be returning to PA every other month to continue my training. Ollie is now permanently retired and I hear he is loving his new life. A huge thank you to Jennifer, Bill, and of course to Ollie for offering this experience of a lifetime to this Para rider! Long life, love and happiness to each of you.
------------------------------
I've arrived in PA and Ollie will arrive tomorrow morning. It's beautiful up here. Rolling hills, not too muggy, cool looking houses and buildings, and really nice people.
Friday I arrived and hung out with some friends, Saturday went to NYC to a party with some friends, Sunday rested, and Monday went to Blue Hill Farm to get used to the layout - so I wouldn't be so dizzy when Ollie arrived. The grooms were wonderful. I also got to watch Missy ride several horses, Jessica ride a horse, watched Becca ride, and a few others. It was really cool. I go later today to roll wraps, clean tack and ride another horse. I'm happy to be here and can't wait to learn everything I possibly can.
Can't wait to see Ollie again either! I didn't think I'd fall in love again after Radical. But alas, I am in love...again. :)
More to follow!
