Well- strike Sarah speechless why doncha. o.o

My father called yesterday- very excited. "There's a Lipizzan horse show* at the fair grounds today and tomorrow!" He said- absolutely glowing. "The Austrian ones!"

I have been absolutely obsessed with Hermann's Royal Lipizzans since I was a tiny child. Disney's film "The Miracle of the White Stallions" was what really started it for me- followed closely by Marguerite Henry's classic book White Stallion of Lipizza.

Ever since I was a child, I wanted to see them perform. It's ballet- it's dancing in the most illustrious definition of the word. It's... music.

What gives me chills is that... after the dream I had of the white mare on Wednesday... now this?

And only my Daddums would know how badly I wanted to go to this. ;-; He will have the happiest Father's Day in the world if I have anything to say about it~
