Alpharetta, GA February 24, 2002

  An Applewood delegation hit the road and showed up in Wellington to see Michelle Gibson ride in the Zada Florida Classic show at the Palm Beach Polo Equestrian Club February 14-17.   

Michelle & Indy warming up

  Michelle had a test on Thursday at 10:00 and another on Friday at 9:25.  It was exciting to watch her ride for first place in both tests.

Ready for the test

  Heavy thunder storms came in Saturday and Michelle decided to let Indy have a rest day.

  In contrast to the dead of winter at Applewood in Georgia, Michelle’s Wellington, Florida stables looked spring-like with lush green grass and shrubs. We sat out on the lawn and relaxed while Michelle worked with her clients in the arena.
