[RC] Pit Crew /Wonderful Friends - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: mike everett mikeeverett@xxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== So often we talk about the beautiful weather and scenery. So often we talk about what a wonderful horse we have and how much we like our truck and trailer. We like the completion award we receive and how well marked the trail was. But you know what???? I think all the people that we share these times with give me the most gratifying moments. This past week my wife wanted to go to the Million Pines ride, but I could not go because of a scheduling conflict. Since I could not be there to pit crew for her she decided not to go. Then on wednesday a mutual friend e-mailed her,after she found out about Ruth Anne's dissapointment, and said she was going with her to crew. Amanda has never gone alone to crew before. She has always gone with her daughter, who is a junior rider, and a group from Leatherwood Mountains. So this was a first for her. I can not tell you how thrilled Ruth Anne and I were that Amanda showed up at our barn at 6:45 a.m. friday morning to go to Soperton, Georgia. We loaded Pretty Boy in the trailer and down the road they went. I was grinning from ear to ear. It really gives me alot of satisfaction to see my wife so excited and happy.To have such a wonderful person going with her made it even more gratifying. Anyway, to make a long story short. Amanda did a wonderful job crewing for Ruth Anne and met her at the finish line in tears celebrating their first place finish together in the fifty. People make the difference!! Hug your crew today.
