Saw a dressage horseback riding competition today at Devonwood Equestrian Centre while visiting a friend in Oregon. Couldn’t really understand the difference between the skills each rider performed (it all looked the same for me), but the competition was a first for me and enjoyable. The Devonwood Estate is absolutely gorgeous. The setting is right out of a Hollywood movie and my horse enthusiast says the amenities (for the horses) are top notch. Keeping up the grounds must be a gardener’s nightmare.
Last night I went to the local movie theatre and saw Van Helsing and Mean Girls. Both were good movies but Mean girls was surprisingly entertaining and funny (I’m big into black humor) despite the demographics (mostly teenage girls) of fellow audience members. Anyway, I’m off to Portland to checkout the nightlife.
