Waco, Texas

Due to the storm that has been showering Waco with rain of biblical proportions, the power went out at the Heart of Texas Fairgrounds last night. Or this morning rather, since it was 12:30 am. While one unlucky working cowhorse exhibitor was completing his reining pattern, the lights went off and didn't come back on until 4:30 am. As a result of this unexpected power outage, the remaining cowhorse, reining and speed classes that were unable to be completed last night started back at 7:00 this morning. Therefore, the halter that was supposed to start this morning will be delayed for approximately 2-3 hours until last night's classes can be completed. Oh, the excitement that comes along with showing horses!
A recap of yesterday's results for the second set of judges, Betty Wilson and Jim Mulhausen, is as follows. Earnest Wilson and JR Smokin Bear won the All Age Cutting, Kaden King and Fax Me A Sock won the Novice Youth Trail, Sherie Elsey and Forever N Ever won the Novice Amateur Trail, and Amanda Ringer and Timeless Assets won the Junior Trail.
Stay tuned to see what the weather will bring, and other exciting updates from the "Warm-up for The APHA Fall World Championship Show," in Waco, Texas ...
