Re: [RC] [RC] ...the continuing saga of a boy and his horse... - Barbara McCraryCaptain Jack was the name of a Modoc Indian chief in the 1800s. Ed's mustang came from the Devil's Garden wild horse area in Modoc County, CA, hence the name for his colt. And yes, others did buy tickets, including our 14 year old granddaughter, who wanted a mustang badly. I think I'm glad she didn't win, however, as training a young horse is a challenging and dangerous proposition. Good luck to Ed. It sounds like he's a pretty sharp fellow and should make a nice mount out of this colt.

garden HMA) as possible. it was a long trip for me, but well worth it, since i got to see part of the country that i had never seen before. it was an adventure! this colt is awesome. when i get him gentled down a bit and cleaned up, i will put some pictures up. i would like to thank dr. philip ottinger, who was involved in the process of selecting the yearlings for me to choose from, and those who came up with the idea to do the raffle. and thanks to all my southeastern endurance riding friends who acted as my cheering section at the convention, since i couldnt be there. special thanks to debbie collins and joe spratton with BLM for all their help with coordinating the pickup and getting all the necessary paperwork done. enough for now, but there will be more later......... ed_________________________________________________________________ Lose those love handles!
