Barn Buzz - September 29th

By LeadMare • Sep 29th, 2007 • Category: GHC News

Greetings from the trail! Ridin’ out is fun and exciting. Sometimes I’ll venture down a path without a clue where I’m headed. On those days I trust my horse guide to keep me safe and, if necessary, take me back in the right direction. Ever had that experience?

by horsejo, age 11
