plane which would carry us back to Toronto, it was with a tear in our eyes and a tug at our hearts. We had experienced American hospitality at its best and had enjoyed watching three days of showmanship and seeing excellent horses at the show. It was only with the great memories we made and the knowledge that there would be more to come that we were able to console our- selves as we said goodbye to California. The Nationals in 2014 will take place Oct.


show selling Peruvian tack and clothing. We also visited Broken Horn Saddlery with Annette, one of the biggest tack shops I have ever seen, just a few miles from Burbank. There was literally a sea of saddles of every kind. I didn’t see much Peruvian gear there, but that is probably a good thing given the restrictions on weight for our baggage on the airlines. On Monday, when Keith and I boarded the


izing. However, Annette made reservations for us at all her favourite restaurants and we wined and dined on some of the finest foods and fruit of the vine as only California can produce! PJ Changs (Thai) , Prosecco Trattoria (Italian), Raffi’s Place in Glendale (Armenian) and Cast- away (The Jewel on the Hill). There were several booths set up at the


10-12 in Tunica, Mississippi . Annette tells us they have a lovely facility there. NAPHA plans to rotate their National Show every three years between the western, central and eastern areas. It was certainly “worth the trip to California” and we will put it on our list of possible holidays in 2014 to travel to Mississippi. In the meantime, we will bask in the mem-


ories and wish to congratulate our Canadians who made the arduous trip to California and made us all proud in their showing of some mighty fine animals. Well done!
