RCCR FLAMING CHARIOT

SOLD.....SOLD.....SOLD..... While on a visit to the ranch, Paul spent a moment with RCCR Flaming Chariot. There in the pasture was a spark of interest. Paul felt a connection with Flame, but it wasn't spoken aloud, after all, they were not looking for a horse at the time, so he admired him in silence. Months later, during a conversation about adding a horse to their herd I suggested Flame might be just the horse to fill the needs of the family. Paul was surprised that I would put Flame at the top of the list of prospects, since Paul never revealed his appreciation for the grey gelding. So another visit was planned and Paul arrived to lay serious eyes on the horse that sparked an interest months ago.

When Paul arrived Flame stood waiting, the Indian summer breezes billowing through his forelock, revealing his inquisitive eyes. We stood in the pasture laying hands on the glistening coat, rubbing his graceful neck and twisting his gloriously thick mane in our fingers while we discussed the future. Flame luxuriated in the attention.

Paul and his family are dear friends of mine and this was no ordinary sale. I wanted the match to be perfect, we all did. It was important that everyone, including the horses, was happy with the addition of this new family member.

Flame arrived at his new home, and let me say, these people know how to treat a horse! Bedded deep in fresh shavings in a stall big enough for four Flame spent the next couple of hours checking out the accommodations fit for a a king. Turned loose in a large paddock we stood in awe of his beauty as he put on a show for all to see. The ground shook underneath our feet as he trotted by, his heritage revealed in his cadenced carriage.

Over the next few weeks the updates came rolling in about Flame's introduction to his stablemate, his interest in the world from the top of the hill and his wide vocabulary of nickers and whinnies. As I listen to each story, I delight in the fact that Flame has enriched their lives.

Sharing the passion of horse ownership with others..... it just doesn't get any better than this.

The match IS made, and it IS perfect.

THANK YOU PAUL !

RCCR DOUBLE EAGLE

Karen Carr, a woman of exquisite artistic talent saw this colt on my website. With an eye for beauty and quality, she claimed him for her own. From the 15 hand yearling colt that arrived at her home in New Mexico, he has matured into a fabulous gelding with a charismatic personality. Karen has a friend who purchased another Pinto with similar markings and they hope to do parades together.

Eagle has been easy to train, ride and with his endearing personality, to love. Between the Dressage lessons and Karen's expertise, he has blossomed! She can't say enough nice things about him.

Watch for new photos that I hope to acquire of this boy soon....

Bonnie purchased this filly as a yearling and took her home to Colorado. Once she matured, a trainer was selected and with just a few weeks under saddle "Inka" was the trainer's delight. Bonnie, being a skilled equestrian, took Inka home to develop her skills under saddle. She took this mare into the Colorado mountains where she would develop a solid foundation for her future. An honest mount, Inka took to the work with the integrity that comes with being a Double Tstandard daughter.

When it came time for Bonnie to buy another horse, a Morgan stallion, Inka was offered for sale. Selected quickly by the first person to look at her, Inka stayed in the majestic state of Colorado to continue riding in the mountains. A follow up found Inka to be treasured by her new owner and a delightful ride on the trails.

I hope to acquire current photos of Inka and post them here soon. Check back!

Ginger chose Janey as her person and in the last several years the developing relationship between them has been book worthy! From sharing her own knitted cap during cold winter storms to keep Ginger's ears warm, to being on "bug patrol" at dusk, in 100 degree heat, killing the B 52 bomber bugs that it seems no fly spray will repel. Janey has spent countless hours seeing that every possible need of Ginger's has been met.

I am blessed to have made a dear friend in Janey too. We keep in touch frequently and sometimes while away an hour (or more) on the phone discussing this antic or that of our beloved equine companions. She and I were discussing the need of a refreshed page on my website and before we could get off the phone sent me the needed photos to update the girl's glamor shots. Over the years I have seen them in wearing those knitted caps, the layers of blankets that needed washing every morning, helping by picking up the manure fork while mucking stalls, and one day I will share the Karaoke Diva photo....too funny.

While Janey has no plans to "show" this mare or her pasturemate, I See Texas, the joy these two horses have brought to their human are of far more value than a wall of championship ribbons.

PA Ultimate Victory
Half Arabian Half Belgian 2007 colt
SOLD***SOLD***SOLD!!!

Now here is a unique story, one of a horse of a different color and a died in the wool Quarter horse gal. Originally attracted to his color, bay roan, the fact that he was half Belgian didn't hurt her feelings any. It certainly gave him the size and substance she was used to.

When he first went home he was in his winter woolies, but as spring arrived, his coat shed off and the weight came on, he really blossomed. Cinnamon and sugar was his body color, with black points all around. Striking! And then he began to grow, tall and wide, and taller and wider. Every time the farrier came he commented on how much bigger "Kit" had grown since his last visit six weeks prior.
Smart to let a young horse of this breeding grow up without stressing his bones and joints, they have him pastured in the wide open spaces with Mustangs, Appaloosas and Quarter horses as runnin' buddies. Here he is free to exercise, build strength and develop great lungs sprinting across the pasture with the adults. When the saddle and rider are applied to the mix, he will be mature and ready for a long useful life.

With horses and cattle there are always fences to build and things to do around the barn. Kit is sweet as the day is long and as Brenda is out building fences he is there to keep an eye on her, head over her shoulder if the time allows.

His legs have grown like tree trunks, building bone and solid joints. His hindquarters have broadened and reveal his Belgian dam's gift of driving power. Kit's face is so Arabian, his eyes so dark and liquid, his profile softly dished, it's unmistakable he carries the blood of the desert. However, his size, which is still steadily increasing, belies his Belgian heritage. Although Kit was a cutie pie in this photo as a weanling, as a three year old he is coming into his own. A fresh photo will appear here soon...
