Georgetown, Kentucky! Some readers already know this, or suspected it, but I did not want to officially post about this until I gave my notice at work.
Our trip to KY in early April was to check out boarding barns, homes, and for our youngest daughter to interview for a new working student position. Lex got the job (yeah!), we found a fab barn for our OTTB, Riva will board where Lex will be working, and we found a house to rent. It was a wirlwind 4 days!
Lex will be a working student for Reese Koffler-Stanfield of Maplecrest Farm and Riva will reside at her barn. Lex will ride Riva a day or two a week and I will be able to ride whenever I want, plus take lessons with Reese. Great opportunity for Lex, Riva, and me!
Reese recommended a private barn for our TB, Cheers, that is not far from Maplecrest Farm. The owner is just taking on a few boarders - we are her first customers - quiet, lovely property with lots of area to ride out.
We found a sweet small house for rent, just a few blocks from the historical downtown part of Georgetown. We really want to live in the area for awhile before we look for a house to buy. We will be renting out our own home in Indiana - put it up for sale when we find the right place in KY.
So, this month will be busy! I am going to the May 11 show in Edinburgh with Riva - Training Level test 2 & 3 again. Other than work and riding, my time will be spent packing!

Wow, congratulations! I'm impressed with how much you got done in so short a time!
Congratulations! Sounds like everything is working out.
I am so excited for you! Also a bit jealous, every time I go to Lexington area I ask myself why I don't live there. I just drove through Georgetown yesterday to visit a friend. Such a cute town. I am so happy Lex found another great opportunity!
OMG so picturesque! Congratulations :)
I love Georgetown! How lovely! And Reese is awesome! Way to go Lex, you guys are going to love her! What a fantastic position!
The real question is, do Jen and I get to crash with you when we're in Lexington? ;)
Can't wait to see you in May!
