July 25, Saturday: Well, look at this.........it is raining!!!! Many people commented it was because Larry washed the car. Staying another day just to give Sobaka a little more time. Still not himself.











Larry was going a little stir crazy so took a drive to the historic town of Hendersonville. Cute! Cute! They have really done a nice job on preserving the area. Had lunch at an Irish Pub. Walked around some of the shops.











On one of our trips to the vet, Larry notice a lot of horse trailers in this WNC Agriculture Center so we stopped to see what was going on. There was a horse competition and the finals were tonight at 6pm. Best of all it is FREE! So home to feed and walk the dogs.











This competition is a Saddlebred competition. They pull carriages, 3-gaited steps, 5-gaited steps and more. What beautiful horses and riders. The costumes are almost as nice as the horses. Even though we do not know the fine tuning on the judging it was fun. Larry and I were chuckling because this is what we wanted to do in Tennessee or Kentucky. Good thing we came to North Carolina.











We like to plan some outings but really enjoy the impromptu moments on this trip.











Home, walk dogs, make coffee, and bed. Hopefully we are off to Chapel Hill tomorrow.











Good night!
