at Rancho Del Rio, Anaheim California

November 24, 2007

 

Spooktacular was cancelled this year because of the California wildfires…but true to the Ride Your Horse spirit, we found our alternative in Harvest Playday.  Our friends in the surrounding equine communities joined our students, along with their friends and family, to ride together in our gymkhana styled games.  What a day!  The weather was perfect, the air was finally breathable again, and the love and laughter was everywhere!

Of course…big brother, Harrison was right behind Connor with a horseshoe of his own!

Here’s Brenden and his proud Mom….taking home two ribbons!

Connor shows us what he’s made of as he easily drops his horseshoe into the bucket!

We tried to tell her, but she just wouldn’t listen…this picture shows that even Topper agrees... Miss Darlene’s hat has got to go!

Evan’s turn to show us how it’s done!

Suzanne and Joel accompany Madison as she waves to all of her adoring fans…..

Pilgrims and Indians was the theme as Joel and Michelle applied the war paint to a very patient Topper.

Madison shows us how a pro does pole bending!
