Trilby and Cooley Ranch

[Merryben@aol.com]

Thanks for all the cards for Trilby's 50,000.  She will really love them.  
Keep them coming.  She did make her 50,000 and more.

Cooley Ranch Ride [formerly Hashknife] was this weekend and was wonderful.  
After record high temperatures this week, the fog rolled in this morning and 
the rest of the day was georgeous.  44 50's started and 22 LD's.  All LD's 
finished and only 3 50's pulled.  Ken Cook and Rocky won the 50 in 4:04 and 
Fred Emigh, riding Lari Shea's mare took BC.  It was a beautiful ride.  The 
Cooley Ranch is a 22,500 acre cattle ranch in Sonoma County.  They go all out 
for the ride and do a beautiful job with the trails, water and the banquet.  
This is a must do ride.....mb
