I’m back home in Kentucky now, and sorting through all the photos I took while in Spain. Over the next several days and weeks, I will be posting many of them here on the blog. But I thought I’d go ahead and begin with one that several people on our CAA trip and several other of my friends and family have demanded asked that I post here.
This may or may not be me, dressed to go to the feria:

Yesterday’s blog post featured a link to a big, high-def photo from last week’s British royal wedding. Did you notice the lone rider with a black plume in his helmet?
He’s the farrier. And his position in the troop is both interesting and, traditionally, a bit gruesome.

I don’t really think this is what BBC News had in mind when publishing this enormous, high-def photo, but we’ll do it anyway!
Click here to see the huge photo from last week’s huge wedding, where you can zoom waaaay in and move around to “find yourself in the crowd” … OR … you can zoom in to see all the beautiful details of the horses’ harness.
Enjoy.

I arrived back in the office today, and Jill left this afternoon to lead the next CAA trip: this one to the Royal Windsor Horse Show in England.
Here is a glimpse of (a smaller-scale, shortened version of) one of the spectacular events the trip participants will see while attending the horse show’s Royal Tattoo. The one shown here was performed at the 2008 Olympia Horse Show in London.

I’m spending most of today working my way back home, through Madrid and then Chicago.
While in Spain, I gathered quite a lot of stories, information, and photos. Many of these will appear here in upcoming blog posts, so stay tuned!
