I’m using the ‘A’ on the wall made out of chalk and the ‘A’ I printed in Magic Marker on the light green box. Every horse went to the box or the wall when asked. I’m still positioning myself relatively close (within three feet) of the ‘A’ on the wall. The box can be quite far from me. My two days of The Challenge have been in the stall of each horse.

Bill and I went to IKEA and found the rectangular boxes. Right next to them was the same colours and numbers in cylinders. Bill checked them out and announced that they were better than the boxes because they were more collapsible, not as rigid. The set of three cylinders cost about $6.00 and the set of three boxes cost about $9. I bought four sets of the cylinders.

I’ll put the letters on the boxes as The Challenge progresses.
