Me and D'Artagnan, 30 mile competitive trail ride, 1981

Pictures, from 1981, We did a 30 mile competitive trail ride, got first in the light weight division, and were all over high point champions! I did a lot of trail riding that summer and fall to leg up for that ride for sure! Cathy

the day after, with his blue ribbon....

Oh heck yeah!....I got bunches of them....but I will not post all of them, just some of my favorit ones....I have not even got to the show hunter ones, they are in my photo albums, these are ones that were in a shoe box....I got pics of my babies, horses that I leased...pics of kids riding my horses...now that I have figured out how to scan, and enhance the photos, to make them look better, I am having a ball.... Cathy
