A weather forecast for clouds and a chance of rain was no where to be found as the event was sun splashed for most of the day. Among the many who brought their horses to the open horse show were Wesley Villegas, 4, and his mom, Cara O’Keefe of Mahtomedi. The mother-son duo entered western pleasure classes. Wesley is on the back of Patches in this photo.
