Bedgebury Camp June 2011
A weekend of rain didn’t dampen our spirits and this was the first camp JJ and I had ever done. Two years later we have got the bug!
We did some flat work on the first lesson then jumping in the afternoon, followed by pole work in the morning of day two and more SJ fences in the afternoon.
Day three we headed off to do some cross country training.
Being away from home doesn’t bother JJ and he behaved impeccably the whole time, I couldn’t have asked for more.
Looking back, it amazes me how far we have come. We may not be jumping 3’ fences or courses but the timid, nervous, worried JJ has come a long long way.

A lovely hack
It's been hot hot hot!
Today we had a lovely hack with Malone, through the woods up the lane and down the bridle path to Mace field. The flies left us alone and apart from the canter through the field we were sheltered from the heat of the sun. A lovely hack and now JJ is back in his stable contemplating eating the rest of his feed. Unusually he left some after we came home but hopefully it's just because he wants a rest as he didn't get his afternoon nap.
