For those of us living the horse show life this summer, it can mean dirty hotel rooms and fast food meals or sleeping in your gooseneck trailer with a foam mattress while enjoying cold ham and cheese sandwiches. As I was scrolling through my newsfeed today, I saw a post about Miranda Lambert showing her Welsh Cob named Ellie (huge shout out to Miranda Lambert for representing all of us crazy horse show people!). Later, she had another post with the hashtags #horseshowseason #glamping. This made me wonder… what’s this “glamping” all about.
Urban Dictionary gives a few definitions and one of my favorites is:
Glamping- “Glamorous camping. Satisfying your craving for the outdoors and your penchant for a good meal, a nice glass of wine, and a comfortable bed.”
So, this begs the question, can you “glamp” even if you’re not a famous country star like Miranda Lambert? I don’t see why not! I think no matter how you travel to horse shows, you can make it something special.
