I can’t believe that my Christmas and winter in Florida have all kind of melted into one. I’ve had a great time in Florida but left for home yesterday and leave for a clinic in Colorado today. We had had three girls—Sara Schulman, Casey Little and Ella MacMaster—helping who were with me all winter and were a great group to work with. They were super organized, rode really well, and were just fun to be around! So thank you to them.

Urrem in a lesson at Will Coleman's Kaylin Dines had some great placings in the high adult jumpers with her horses Unbridled Numbers, Urrem and Volcan. My own Storm has gotten better and better, thank you so much to Mike Huber, Lynn Symansky and Baron Heilbron for helping me with him. My newest Thoroughbred, Collection Box, has done his first couple cross-country schools and dressage lessons and is even better than I’d hoped!
The weather and the ability to train, lesson, school and compete in Ocala makes the winter really productive here. I'd like to give a huge shout-out to Mike and Cherye Huber for hosting my horses again this year. They’re so great to deal with and great friends. And of course thanks to Marnick Farm and Susan and Barton Merle-Smith—I'm so lucky to have them as friends and stay with them.

I'm super excited for what the rest of year has to bring and I can’t wait to go to Land Rover Kentucky, Badminton and Luhmuhlen. I'm also looking forward to having more adventures with Kaylin and her horses and my own horses. But mostly, it's so great to see Tom and the dogs. I'll try not to wait so long to post again!
Ellie Mae!
