Country music played over the intercom as I entered the crowded arena at the National Equestrian Center. At least two dozen people donning chaps and cowboy hats were guiding their horses dressed in western tack in small circles, waving brightly colored flags around like orchestra conductors. “I am totally out of place,” I thought as I […]
