Things That Only Happen In Virginia

Today, at my chiropractor and accupuncturists' office, I ran into: Paul Cronin, former director of riding at Sweet Briar College, introduced to me by Lendon Gray who holds him in the highest regard (and if Lendon holds you in that high a regard, you're a damn fine horseman); Daphne Alcock, top class show jumping rider and wife of Graham, dentist to the equine stars; and Daphne's mother Nancy Dillon, who has taught bajillions of Northern Virginia children how to ride at her famous school of equitation.

Things like this did not happen to me in Illinois.
