Amelia - Amelia hopped off Moon, praising him for such a goo juping session. they ha started with a few crosses, and ended in a course involving some tight turns. She walked him to th yard, where she untacked. Then she turned him out into one of the filds, and went to take her tack back to the tackroom. She saw a new guy, around her age threre, unpacking some tack. "hey," she said shyly. |

Shay walked Edge both ways and then trotted both ways, then she got both leads going both directions along him edge before she started with a couple small jumps. Edge usually jumped about 4 feet-5 feet in shows, and usually 4-5 feet spreads, he is very advanced in his showjumping. Shay currently had a 3-4 feet jump course with 3-4 feet spreads. Edge went through the course smoothly, there were some hard turns and the jumps weren't easy. Shay stroked his neck as praise to him. |

They had arrived not too long ago. Neptune had been a pain to put away for the night and she kept whinnying for her dinner, which was late on Penny's part. Penny woke up to her alarm screeching at her to get up. "I'm up, I'm up," she murmured and peeling the covers off her. She got up and took a speedy shower. Yanking on chocolate brown breeches and a light blush sweater, Penny put her hair in a ponytail and pulled out a pair of Breyer riding socks. She grabbed her gloves and helmet and slid into her tall boots and also put on her spurs. I haven't done dressage in a while, so why not do that today? She thought. She grabbed the dorm keys and shut to door softly and locked it before pocketing them in her pockets. After a warm-up, the two started to do a dressage routine. Neptune was strongest in dressage and weakest in show-jumping. Pulling Neptune to a halt, Penny grabbed her phone and put in a wireless earbud. Roslyn, Geronimo, Thunder...nope. Why not I Said Hi? She tapped the song and started playing it. She turned up the volume and set her phone on a nearby surface outside the arena. Then they started her routine. "Good," Penny whispered as Neptune effortlessly switched her lead. It was impressive that a mare who was a terror on the ground could look so graceful being ridden. |

Jess | M: Open Jess woke at 6:00, drowsily rubbing her eyes and fighting to not go back to bed. Get up Jessica, you have to go feed your horse. She told herself pushing off the bed covers. But it's so nice here. A voice in the back of her head stated. She ignored the voice and got up if the soft mattress. She brushed her hair, which was a complete mess, and pulled it into a braid. She got dressed in her baby blue polo shirt and a pair of black jodhpurs, chucking on her stable boots at the door. She wasn't planning on riding until later that day. She left her room, locking the door and pocketing her keys, and walked down to the stable. She found Asteria's stable and waked up to it. She noticed her mare was still sleeping and decided to ready her food. She grabbed her feed bucket and walked it the feed room. Mixing the various grains and supplements for her horse. She walked back to the mares stable and Asteria was finally awake. She moved into the stable and patted her mare, hanging up the feed bucket for her to eat. She gave her a once over and made sure she was ok after the drive here, she looked all good and Jess made her way out of the stable, giving her mare some privacy. |

Shay went through the course two more times before she decided to call it quits. She dismounted in the arena and led him out to the barn after putting up the jumps. She put him in the crossties and untacked him, she took her tack to the tack room and put them in their places. |

Jess | M: Open As the mare finished her food, Jess slid into her stable and started mucking out. Freshening up the stall. Once the mucking out was done Jess went and found Asteria's halter and lead rope from the tack room. She decided it might be nice to go for a bit of a walk and take the mare with her. She slipped the Azure blue halter and lead rope over Asteria's head, unlatched the stable door, and walked the mare out. She decided to head out to the arenas and do some liberty, yes it was originally supposed to be a little exploration time but she still had to get there right? She lead Asteria out and picked up her dressage whip along the way. After a bit of searching she found one of the indoor schools. She made sure all the exits were closed and let Asteria go. The mare took off at a gallop, thundering to the other side of the arena, bucking and kicking along the way. Jess just walked over to a wall, out of the way, and let the mare have her fun. Once Asteria had finished her wild burst of energy, she came back to Jess and was ready to start the work. Jess started off with just walking around, making sure the mare was fallowing, listening and focused. She did some stoping and starting and circling, refreshing Asteria's memory. The mare caught on quick and remembered the tricks she was taught back at home. |

Lukas W. Schneider
--- Just as Lukas closed the car door, a girl around his age approached him. "Oh hey there." He smiled at her. "Have you been here awhile? Do you know where the housing is?" He laughed a little. "I uh...didn't really get any information about that as I was leaving to come here." Lukas ran his hand through his brown hair. "Oh, I'm Lukas. Lukas Schneider." He held out his hand and smiled again.
(My appologies for not posting for a while!!! Didn't mean for that to happen) |

"oh the housing is just over there," she pointed at the stone house."yeah ive been here since yesterday, but im still getting to know the place. Ive ridden once allready." she looked into the distance, seeing a irl doing some sort of liberty in an arena."whats your discipline?" she asked. tucking a piece of hair behind her ear. |

Lukas W. Schneider --- "Nice to meet you too Amelia." Lukas said as she shook his hand. He looked across one of the arenas at a stone house Amelia pointed at. "Oh great! Like I said, I didn't look at the information I was emailed. I was running behind with loading everything up I just decided to wait to come today." He picked up his duffle bag and suitcase and started walking towards the stone house. "Show jumping is my main discipline, but I dabble a bit in cross country. However, I don't think my horse has the endurance for it. How about you?" He asked as adjusted the position of his bag on his shoulder. |
