Between the two of us we have over 100 years experience with horses. (Oh my, that makes us sound VERY old)</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>For those of you that don't already know us, we are mother and daughter. Carol, my mom, has had all kinds of horses since she was a small girl growing up in California. She has had everything from pleasure horses to competition horses. Right now she has three horses: a 1985 Appaloosa gelding, </B><B>Arapahos Hawk</B><B>, a 1994 AQHA black mare, Tinkering With Magic, Tinker, that she is barrel racing on and a 2003 AQHA buckskin mare</B><B> </B><B>Lady Pocahontas Star, Bubbles</B><B>!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>My Mom bought me and my sisters our first pony when I was four years old, and there has been no stopping me! I started out in Gymkhanas, then High School Rodeo, dabbled in the WPRA with my permit in the early 80's and now jackpot barrel races. I do go on trail rides with mom when she drags me and Viper. I too have two horses: a</B><B> </B><B>1996 AQHA gelding, Strikin Docs Viper, Viper, and a</B><B> 2002 AQHA palomino gelding, Alamans Macho Frost, Coz, that I am running barrels on as much as possible! I now have a third barrel horse, a 1995 AQHA gelding, Kirks Pay Day, Supe.  </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>The Hanging Heart is the brand that is on our horses.  People keep asking what the meaning of it is and to be honest I played a lot of hangman when I was a kid and we wanted a unique brand so that's it, no hidden meaning!!!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>On some of the pages you will see family and friends also on our horses!  The older pictures show my sisters Brenda and Randi, and my son Jerimiah (JC).  My sister Randi has two grown sons, Casey and Cody, in some of the newer pictures you will see Cody's daughter Carlee and Casey's son Darin riding the horses.  </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>It's not a hobby, it's a way of life!!!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>This article was in the September 2004 edition of the AW4D paper! </B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="078bc3a0.jpg" border=0 width="700" height="826" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> Designed and Developed by Robin Williams</div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
