A peeved sounding meow from the back of the car informed Theresa Godfrey of her cat's disgust at this long car journey. Colorado to Kentucky, even taking it quite slowly and with a couple of overnight stops, was a long, tiring drive. "I hear you, buddy, I hear you," she replied, throwing a look over her shoulder to the cat basket safely ensconced on the back seat. "But I think this is our turn-off..."
It was, and shortly thereafter they were drawing up before the building that could only be the office, Theresa taking eager glances around her at the wide, sweeping grounds of the Academy. "Heh, home sweet home," she muttered to herself as she cut the engine, and exited the vehicle, saying, "Back in a minute darling," to the grouchy silence now emanating from the cat basket. Granite was not at all pleased.
Pausing only to take a quick look into the trailer shackled to her car, and ascertaining that both her horses seemed fine, Theresa made her way into the office, looking around her as she did so with wide, eager eyes. This place looked magnificent - she couldn't wait to get out on one of her horses, she really couldn't!
Walking in to the Main Office with a quick, light step, she frowned slightly at the empty reception desk, her face clearing when she saw that there was a bell to ring for attention. Ah, good - she might've been here for a while, otherwise. Ringing the bell, she didn't manage to stand still in front of the desk for very long, instead crossing back over to the windows of the office and taking a look outside.
