Where would one look for BC2A?
Sherry Brunkhardt

Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a 
game of solitaire.
It is a grand passion.
It seizes a person whole and, once it has done so, he will have to accept 
that his life will be radically changed. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
