My name is Virginia Prey. I live north of Lincoln, Nebraska. Riding is my therapy! And when I'm not riding, I am thinking about it! My motto is live to ride, ride to live.
I currently have eight horses, six of them under saddle and three of them I compete in NATRC and AERC. Out of those three, I really don't have a main mount because it changes. I have Missouri Fox Trotters, Arabians and a 1/2 Arabian. My eight consists of two stallions; one MFT double registered War Eagle's Running Bear and one Arabian, Rushcreek Garrett. My mares consist of two Arabians, Cameo Night Star and Rushcreek Daisy; three MFT mares, Steppin Out Annie D, Fantasy Moon Dancer and ViKen's Bearoness and half-Arabian ViKen's Bearacuda.
I am switching gears from Competitive Trail to Endurance. Though nothing beats starting a horse in Competitive Trail to teach it patience and manners.
"No philosophers so thoroughly comprehend us as dogs and horses." ~Herman Melville

Brenda called me a cheater today because she is at the No Bull Expo and when I saw a ray of sunshine I ran out and grabbed a horse to ride. I told her not to worry it was just Oness. She is so slow it's like riding in reverse and they may deduct mileage.

Well Oness was as slow as ever Brenda rode circles around us on Annie, literally! I don't think her GPS was recording accurately as it only slowed a little more mileage than Oness and I and I'm pretty sure she did at least a mile more.

I figure I would have to ride 400 miles each month left to catch you, Well, that isn't going to happen, lol. Ride like the wind and then ride some more.

Riding at night takes the riding experience, that connection between you and your equine partner to another level!

ReplyDeleteDidn't think I was going to ride today but Ken finally had enough of me and kicked me out of the house with instructions not to come back until I had gone for a ride. It was a short one but nice. Happy New Year everyone!

If I had only gone just a little further I would have tied it up with Brenda. Congrats Brenda!
Congratulations Virginia on a Great race! Could just see you in the distance :-)
