Congratulations are in order for Marsha and Robert Turney, on their purchase of the beautiful mare, Bellistic.  She was purchased from Chimera Morgans in July, and Marsha has plans to show her at one of their Canadian shows, and possibly OKC!  Lissy is truly the epitome of the Ladies western horse, so we plan on seeing them making many victory passes in the future!

The new pairing of Elyse Brill and He's Simply Marvelous has been a match made in heaven!  So far in 2007, Boo and Wiley have garnered championships at the Key Classic, PNW Springtime, and Far West Regionals.  Their expertise runs the gamut, and includes wins in Western Equitation, Western Pleasure, Trail, and the AMHA medal classes.  Their gunning for wins at the Grand National, so watch for them!

Speaking of Elyse, she had her 15th birthday party at the Far West Regional, and what a time was had by all!  Mom Kristi provided a piñata, and Dad Thad added to the entertainment by making it impossible to hit, by swinging it off a rope hung between trailers.  The girls also set up a trendy lighted palm tree to light up the evening festivities, and it was all topped of by some scrumptious chocolate cake!  Uh-oh, doesn't that mean she can drive now?!

A note from Tasha, queen of the barn.  She wants to tell everyone that the recent heat waves across the US have been uncomfortable, and this malamute is ready to be a snow dog again!

It's that time of year to head on over to the Oregon Coast for our annual beach ride.  Tentatively scheduled for August 11, all are welcome.  If you want to join us, call Carmen at (503)843-2036.
