Jari is a big Clapton fan so on Wednesday 10th June he went to the IZOD Center to see Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood play live. He had a great time (“the best concert of the year” and “the old folks really showed how to play rock’n’roll!”) and managed to take a few photos in between singing along to all the songs:

Phillipa wins “Grand Champion” at the DCTTR Horse Show

On Saturday 6th June, Phillipa competed in the DCTTR (Dreams Come True Therapeutic Riding) Annual Summer Horse Show in Pittstown. DCTTR is where she is having riding lessons – English style. She rode her current favourite horse – Detra. They did very well, winning the first class and coming 3rd in the second class. For the first time there was a “Grand Champion” award given for the rider (or riders) who gained the most points in their classes. Points were given for the placements awarded in each of the two classes they competed in. For the afternoon session (Pony Club and special needs riders) there was a 3-way tie for Grand Champion, of which Philipa was one winner!!

Here is a montage of photos taken at the show:
