    Is it weird that I rearranged my work schedule so that I can watch all day for the whole clinic?

    Not weird at all! To a horse person.

    Is it going to be all George teaching this year? I know that last year was last minute replacements, but I think I got more out of watching McLain's teaching than any clinic I've ever attended - wish he were doing another segment this year!

    I loved Kent last year too. While I would never wish anyone to be ill (as George was last year), they still did an excellent job in his absence last year.

    ^ For sure, a great group stepped up to the plate last year to fill in for him. You could hardly imagine a better list in your wildest dreams.

    Didn't Beezie also do a day? Help from two double gold medal Olympic riders in the same clinic- come on! How great is that?!?

    It looks like the weather is nice for day one. No jackets in sight.

    I just turned it on a few minutes ago, and very promptly heard a classic GM line. To a rider who was drawing her heel up to use her leg: "You're like a ballet dancer on your toe."

    Somehow I find the consistency of GM over the years to be reassuring proof that some things never change.

    Who did he say that horse belonged to? His favorite 'pet'? Christina something?

    Does anyone know if they will have the feed available on demand after like they have in past years? I can only dash down to my office to watch for short periods, but I LOVE watching this clinic!

    Somebody else will probably come up with a better Dos Equis line for that move. "GM does not let others tell him when the ring is closed. He tells them when to close the ring."

    And I will just say, not only would I love to ride half as well now as GM does at his age, I would love to be half as fit now as he is at his age. To flat that horse that way and talk the whole time? That's not easy!
