Awwwww, what a gorgeous little girl! I love that mischevous little grin she's got there. The horse sure looks nice too. You'd never guess in a million years that he was 21 yrs old.

It's getting to where 21 isn't really all that old any more, especially for a horse that has/is receiving good care.

Celia and I have been talking a lot about a lady that competes in CTR's on a horse that is pushing 30. Elmer. Every year this woman gets a National Champion ship, which doesn't necessaily means she is winning first every time, but means she is in the Open division, and placing enough to build enough points for a Championship.

It's so funny, this lady is the perfect image of Ma Kettle, I swear she has a lip full of snuff, and has this old hat with the crown cut out, but with a very wide brim and, she looks older then the horse. Very inspirational tho what seniors, horses and human can accomplish.
