Author and clinician Sean Patrick and I have a sort of running contest going…who can take cuter pictures of their kids? His daughter, Madilyn, was born not so many months after my son, so I guess we can reassure each other that parenthood is indeed the only thing better than horses!
Sean tells me he and his wife Alicia will have a shiny new website up and running soon (keep an eye on http://www.seanpatricktraining.com) and he’s also posted his upcoming clinic schedule for 2011 and on into 2012. If you are anywhere near the New Smyrna Beach, Florida, area, plan to stop by for one of Sean’s clinics, or maybe just to meet him and his family.
