Meeting Avesta

We just got back from a meeting in Avesta (that´s what they horsepeople call some competitionevents). We only brought one horse with us and lucky was that because Sweden had a heatwave. Milton experienced his hottest day (two actually) during this weekend trip. We're talking about 33-36 degrees, clear skies and practically no wind at all. He sat in his pram hour after hour during these hot days with towel shade and a moist kitchen towel. He was a trooper and didn't cry or misbehave or anything. We did of course go inside a few times to cool off but mostly we were outside with the horses. Elina competed in four rounds/competitions and had three clear rounds. We also stayed at a hotel in Avesta Centrum, so we didn't have to sleep with the horses :) That was Milton´s first stay at a hotel.

All and all this trip was a success.
