A New Rider in the Family







This is my oldest daughter, Mary Engle rider the gray mare, Blue Jean and in the first picture the other rider on the chestnut mare is my other daughter, Debbie Zinsius. This is the first time Mary has been on a horse that she has actually ridden. Debbie grew up riding a sweet little pony named Tony. She and her brother Steve who rode a painted pony named Chico loved riding those ponies together. They rode all over the farm on those two ponies.


They showed them in the 4-H shows at the Spencer County Fair. We didn't have a fancy trailer to load them on so we put the cattle racks on the pick up truck and put both of them on the truck and off we went to the horse and pony club meetings and the fairs. They were not fancy but the children had more fun than you could imagine.


The Rocky Mountain Horses the farm owns these days are very nice horses with pedigrees that trace back to the original horses in the breed. They are beautiful slick animals that get shots on a regular basis, get wormed and seen by the vet on a regular basis.


God has blessed me and my farm with these wonderful horses. He has blessed the world with horses that are easy to be around and easy to handle. They are sweet and kind hearted.


I thank the Lord for all the blessing of this day.


May God bless and keep you in his loving care.


Regards


Mary
