To Cassie's credit, she took it all in and never missed a beat. Soon she was asking Audrey the rationale behind what Audrey did, and in doing so, began to add Audrey's years of experience to what she had been learned at Pony Club. Cassie's willingness to change and explore new ways of handling horses made it easy to like her, though for a time, she was rather gun shy. This had its humorous benefits, which everyone at the barn jumped to exploit. The more we stared, the more nervous she got, eventually however, she caught onto the joke.
Cassie is now a regular part of the crew.
We always look forward to seeing her. No matter how horrible the weather, she is always happy and cheerful. We don't hear much about Pony Club anymore, but knowing Cassie, Pony Club will always be in her life. Somewhere out there is a Pony Club that is destined to have her as their DC, and when they get her, they're going to get someone very knowledgeable and very special. Unfortunately for Cassie, she had no sooner joined our crew then her loner horse went lame, and any hope of a run at Preliminary was banished for the foreseeable future.
