I have always loved horses..had a few big ones, thru out the years. When the knees stopped bending...back started to go..
The New Chapter with the Mini's and Shetland's began in 1990. Didn't do much the first years, no shows, just played. In 1996 I started showing. Now thinking back about all these years of traveling around the country with Sure Man, Midas, Motion & Night Moves and their get I don't know what I did before .
There are so many people to Thank For all the Memories.
My daughter Shellie, for her support, love ! For all the nights we stayed up waiting for those foals. For her hugs when there were tears and our high fives when it was really good. We were quite a team!
Cammie ..West Winds Farm, for the horses & tons
of advice
Mike McCabe, for training and handling of my horses. Especially for taking Sure Man & Midas so far!
Paige, Vicki, Judy & Jody, Terry & Marty..for all the fun, and laughter at the shows!
Connie and Tim Ballard for taking such good care of the horses . Coming to get them when it was needed. But most of all for our friendship..OMG and all the laughter.........Love you guys.
Getitia...for all her knowledge she shares, and roadster plans in the future. Most of all for trusting in me to allow Motion and Night Moves,& Hot 2Trot to come home with me. And her total understanding when THINGS change....Thank You
Jim and Becky McKieth for all they have done for me and the boy's. Not only training and showing...but taking them for the winters for me when I can't keep them home.
Plus winning Nights & Sure Mans HOF !!
Thank You Thank You......
Last but not least.
My husband, who has hammered, strung wire, built...and listened to me go on & on & on. Has encouraged me thru the good and consoled me thru the tears. He says he doesn't understand why I do it....but so admires my passion... Although if it doesn't start with a key...he is not sure what to do with it!
All the owners of Gracelands foals or horses thru the years! I Thank you for the loving homes and for your friendships.
Things are slowing down now...no more babies, limited shows..I will have memories to last me a life time.
I am so lucky & so Blessed for being able to live my dream!
