The Big V: You remember me telling you on Monday that #1 had something planned for me that day? Well, here I am to tell you all about it and show you some awesome pics, mostly taken by Mr. G who came to see the event.

August 15th is a national holiday in France and we always have the biggest Percheron event of the year in our area on that day. This year, the location changed after more than 20 years, and we were trying out a new location (that will change again next year!). Anyway, #1 was doing the commentaries on one of the rings, and I went along with my friend, Doupette, to show off what two incredibly handsome logging horses look like. For the occasion, I wore my beautiful Japanese logging collar, a gift from Mr. T!

Most of the photos were taken in the ring, when we were just showing off, but #1 managed to get hold of one pic where you can see us at work. We cleared an overgrown small wood close to the show site!

It was a lot of fun. I love being out and about and having people admire me! Ms. C was telling #1 that although I misbehaved a little when I was working, I behaved perfectly as soon as I entered the show ring. #1 had told her that would be the case, but she didn't believe it until she saw it with her own eyes! My breeders were there too, along with my half-sister, and they said I looked fab!
