Another day in eventing paradise for the crew today as yet another perfect day dawned with blue skies and the backdrop of the chateau defining Le Pin as absolutely the ultimate French event.  Jonelle was hugely complimentary about both the...

Wall to wall sunshine in France today and the flashy Jarillo ( Milo) who possesses both talent and bling in droves was on fire in his first international. The photo of him cross country does  look like he is going...
