Almost done with Adelsö

Gearing up for the biggest race event of the year, The Elitlopp. Races held Wednesday, Friday, Sat & Sunday. 46 races or something in all with millions in purses. About a million dollars in purses in the main event alone! Some of the worlds greatest trotters, flewn in from around the world will fight it out over the weekend, meaning I´ll be busy, busy taking pics.

Cleaned out the old barn over the last couple of day's, can't believe how much crap you collect if you have enough space! Annelie hosed down the stalls and all with a highpreassure washer while I concentrated on emptying the hay loft. Hopefully we're done at the old place now and can focus on all the projects that need our attention at Snösvad. More fences need to come up, arena panels put up and the general chaos sorted out. Somewhere in there I hope to find some time to ride the horses too! Cat needs a couple of more miles on her before summergrazing and Brady needs his work too.

I'm also involved in the efforts to get a Scandinavian Cutting Futurity in place this fall. A couple of us in the association are hard at work trying to get all the pieces in place. Ungreateful business I know, but gotta get done if we're to take cutting to the next level here in Sweden.
