Me back in high school (1998 maybe?)
I trained professionally for a while, but then I went back to school to get a "real" job & haven't ridden in a couple of years

Andrea, you are just full of surprises.
I think I understand why you've taken to mtb racing.

Rode h/j since I was 16. Then after I got hired with the police dept. I had to get rid of the jumper. Started back up off and on. Okay ehirsch83, what was your junior hunters name. I was still riding then, before the last bad accident(kicked in the face). I'm sure I know you. I rode with Elaine Morden and Margie Engle. It's been 1 year since I rode. After the kick it took 7 years then I'm riding a TB baby for Elaine and he flips over on me...2 more broken ribs. Really could not afford to get hurt since my husband was home after back surgery. Sometimes I really miss it. Small world.

Thanks for the PICS!!
You ladies ROCK!! What gorgeous pics!
Kermit and Ariel--I wish you both a speedy recovery. Are you able to cycle?
How often it has been in quite moments as I pedal down a country road that I feel the presence of my old gaited mare, Red Apron, who I had until 1994. She lived to a ripe old age and was such a happy girl.
I'm trying to post a pic of my girl back in 1973...Fit and Fabulous on a Bike...Decrepit on a Horse!

Memphis? Germantown Charity Horse Show?
Hi Andrea! My DH is from Memphis--we lived there 1988--1991. I kept my gaited mare near Eads at Betsy Bates' place. This was a hunter-jumper barn on over 100 gorgeous acres near the Wolf River. (Paul Jones Road). We may know some of the same people...

My junior hunter was Landover. I got him and did him in the 12-14 eq and childrens hunters before moving into the large juniors and the big eq. We also played around in the jumper ring some. Jimmy Torano did him in the 2nd years for me when I first got him and Dottie Barnwell used him for her eq. horse sometimes.
I grew up riding at Carriage Hill Farms with Jane Fenessey(up in Delray).

That particular photo was probably taken during one of the other shows at the same showgrounds as the Charity show. I remember an older man named Harvey from a barn out there who I met guest riding a few times w/the Longreen hunt club. I hacked a couple of horses for him at shows while I was in high school.

the REAL Copper Legend. He was an awesome little TB/QH that my sister and I owned. Never felt so safe on a horse, and I probably won't again for a while. I miss him terribly.
Happier, younger days...
