DEAR CARA;;
I agree, it feels like so much longer! It's great to hear from you again, I'm glad you're doing well, and it's good to hear that Shiloh and Spree are doing well. How's Fee doing in her new home? I'll have to make sure to keep an eye out for your name in the show ring again, best of luck with all of those!
Things are going well, Dr. Carr hosted two 'first aid' clinics for the kids that stayed on campus (Like me), and we just practised bandaging, wound classification, the like. Fingal is doing great, I've started him under saddle, and he's taking to it surprisingly well. Dynamite hasn't had any great advances, he tolerates light and most noises by now, although he'll still spook at any loud noise. I've started introducing him to the halter, but he isn't taking to it yet, so that's the goal for the summer. Grace is doing wonderfully! She's still a dream whenever I take her out to exercise her, although I do think she missed you when we started, I had to work with her on getting her to accept me.
That letter... It sounds horrible! Who would do that to a horse? I can't imagine it, that's just cruel. Isn't this the same woman who sent you a letter that blamed the girl for letting her mount fall apart? That's just wrong.
Of course, I'd love to see you, and I'm sure Grace would love to see Alisha again! What weekend would work for you?
Love, Miranda

HEY!!
Of course! It's exciting to hear about how you're doing, and your job!
It's too bad that you don't see Feé a lot, but it's great that she got 'adopted'!
I know, I know, I'm trying my best to give him the time he needs to adjust, but it's just so frustrating. He didn't even know what to do with a carrot when he finally let me get close enough to drop one in his feed bucket, but he has figured that out by now. Hopefully he'll eventually click. Speaking of turning a corner, I hope you don't mind my asking a bit of advice. I've managed to start Cray under saddle, and she's doing pretty well, but I feel like the academy is too busy for her, even after two years. I'm debating selling her to a quieter home (Provided I can get her into a trailer), but I'm not sure. I feel like it'd be disloyal to her, since she's been here with me since the start, but then again, how can she shine when she's not happy here?
I cannot understand people sometimes, I swear. The last week of September works for me, I look forward to seeing you! We'll be back in school, but I mean, it's the weekend. I hope Aleisha can make it work, and I'm sure the Academy will find a bed for you somewhere.
I can't wait to see you again!
Love, Miranda
