Can you guess where we are? Are we in Provence? No, it just looks like Provence. Shelley competed in a horse show at Clairmont Show Stables right here in central Alabama, about seven miles from where we live! Clairmont is a lovely barn, and they're fantastic hosts. You can see photos of the pretty barn above. (Yes, they are photos of the barn!)

congratulations to your beautiful daughter!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful place to compete. Congratulations Shelley!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go Shelley - congrats on the blue ribbon (and all the others).
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous barn. I only twigged after a few photos that it was indeed a barn. I would happily move in (well if the horses move out that is). By the way, how do you get your horse down there?
Congrats to Shelley, she sure is a winner and a beautiful equestrian! I know you are so proud of her. Thanks for sharing the Provense in Clairmont, lol.. Big hugs,

I absolutely love the picture of Shelley helping Elmo. What a great candid shot. The barn is beautiful and way to go Shelley for earning the blue!!!
ReplyDeleteI could definitely live in a barn. This brings back great memories of our days on the circuit.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely stable! You certainly have made me long for my own horse show days!!
