She was excited because I was there to take photos. "OH", she said, "I always have to take photos of Kurtis but never get photos of me". She is a bit of a whiner. (It's my blog Marilyn, I can say what I want! You are welcome to rebut in the comment section if you wish.)

First, you must have a "rig" to house both you and your horses.
Another important part of this sport is: You must have a horse or two!

Comments are always welcome.
