I can't even afford dressage lessons or a horse trailer, so I do the free trail riding (well road riding because we don't have trails) lol. You will figure it out. You always have.

Then at least 4 schooling shows - about $250 each. Up in the air about sanctioned shows this year - would be the first time for me...we will see. Twice monthly lessons - $65 a lesson. <br /><br />About $2750 total for March - October.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10313417800020012776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-21546338209297732532016-03-09T04:48:30.907-08:002016-03-09T04:48:30.907-08:00Literally don't know how you do this haha.

My goals were at least 2 shows and at least one clinic. I'm only doing schooling shows this year and they come to about $60-$100 a show (hauling etc included), and the clinic I'm interested in is $240 for three days, plus hauling/gas and $45 for stabling. I think I may be looking at around $800-$1000 for the show season, since I'm eyeballing 4-6 shows total, instead of just two.Hawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05303236534507171227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-11621428054956816302016-03-08T22:00:59.721-08:002016-03-08T22:00:59.721-08:00I love reading your blog, the way you put things r...I love reading your blog, the way you put things really does make me lauggh. With magic I don't really tend to have a budget only due to the fact that he's just a baby and I'm enjoying letting him be that but don't get me wrong when he gets older we will be doing competitions and that is when my budgeting will really kick in Amberrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854315214163999137noreply@blogger.com
