Last week when I attended the Indiana State Fair, I got the pleasure of watching Jason Goodman’s Roman Riding act. He stands on the backs of the wheel team of his six-horse hitch of Percherons as they gallop around the arena.

I saw him perform at the 2010 World Percheron Congress but his act never gets dull. Sorry the video isn’t better. It is a pretty exciting act to watch so it is hard to hold the camera still.

Also, my horses and I will be attending and showing at the Morrow County Fair next week. Make sure you stop by the draft barn and say hi if you are there.

If it isn’t a show day, you may have to wake me up. I often get more and more tired as the week goes on and sneak in some naps in the horse barn.
