Woohoo! DD finally got off the waitlist and into a riding stable local to us.

I am so happy. We were wasting nearly two hours in commute time to get to DD's old barn. The new barn is barely 20 minutes away, AND it has more rigor, safety and respect for its horses and riders. OK, it's about twice as expensive (ugh). But our quality of life will be so much better!
I just had to share my relief, after so much commuting misery! |

| How long did it take to get off the list? We are waitlisted at Rock Creek Horse Center (assuming this is not where you are going)... |

This is for Meadowbrook Stables. It took 3 years. Best of luck to you! |

| Hooray! As a rider myself, I know how frustrating it is to waste valuable barn time sitting in traffic. I hope your DD enjoys her new place. |

| Yay! See you at the local and regional horse shows! We are at Big Easy Barn and love it but are full and have a wait list too. It seems riding has become quite popular. |

| We are on Capitol Hill and currently commuting to a barn 45 mins-1 hour away depending on traffic. We would appreciate suggestions for barns that are closer to us. DC does English/jumping. Thank you |

| Sorry can u clarify op? Do you mean your horse is now at this new barn a and that's why it took so long to get off the wait-list? Or is this just for lessons??!! |
