Robert yells up to me, " Juliet! Come down!"
I groan as I get up from bed, taking steps down our wooden stairs. "What do you want..?"
My dad cheerfully says, " I signed you up for a horse camp just down the road!"
*I look confused* "wait really?"
Robert smiles and nods. " go get ready, we're gonna go check it out.
Once I'm done getting ready we both get in the truck parked in our driveway, I wonder why he had signed me up? Overall, I am obsessed with horses and this is a dream come true!
*I gaze out the car window excitedly as our car pulls up on the dirt path*

*we both get out the car, watching as a lady with a big smile approaching us.*
"Is this Juliet?"
Robert smiles and nods, "sure is!"
*she turns to me, I slowly put on a smile.*
The lady speaks, "come on, I'll show you the activity centre as we start our lessons soon."
*I smile and follow her*

*I just had finished drawing when I hear a lady call my group number*
"Okay everyone! May group 3 please come up to the barn!"
*as I watch everyone approach, I slowly follow them, and once inside the barn I notice a beautiful black gelding.*
*we walk into the office where they are assigning our own horse for the week.*
*I hear my name get called, I quickly raise my hand*
"You'll be riding and taking care of Winky, the black gelding."
*A smile quickly struck my face.*
I say quietly but excitingly, "okay, may I go see him?"
They nod and smile.

*I quickly walk out the office, turning left and noticing Winky's head, he nickers*
*I smile and walk up to him, stroking his mane.*
*I hear footsteps, I turn around noticing my best friend.*
She says, "my horse that I'm riding and taking care of is Brody, the owners horse."
*I looked surprised.*
"She let you ride the owners horse?"
*she nods*

After about an hour later we finally get to tack up our horses and have our lesson, which we rode western.

Since Winky was already in his stall I only had to  grab a lead rope and lead him out. I grabbed a lead rope that was hanging on the wall and I patted him before I clipped the lead rope on his torn out but still wearable halter. I made a quick slip knot on the stall door after I slowly walked him out. I looked up at him, noticing how tall he was and how beautiful his black coat was. "Wow." I thought in my head, my eyes glancing around him.
