A Tribute
They have been our faithful servants, our tireless comrades,
and our loyal friends.
giving us their all...
speed endurance power...
A gentle grace.
and flawless beauty
their unwavering trust.
their heart.
Godspeed to the 49 noble horses and 2 men
that lost their lives this
past weekend...
May their wild spirit
burn bright...
....and may they always
have green pastures.
Thank you to Linda at http://coconutsandlimes.blogspot.com/ for letting me use her beautiful words from a past tragedy when the polo ponies in Florida were lost.
On a much less serious note we are taking off our cowboy boots
and soon will be heading home soon .
We didn't make the semi-finals so back in the car we go,
heading home to Christmas and snow.
Enjoy!

Good Morning Sweetie...
Oh Kelly, I so love this beautiful photo, and the horses running, free spirits, gosh I so love it.
I cannot believe that you all didn't make the semi-finals. I am sorry for you and DH, but happy that you are heading home for Christmas. No place like home.
Please have a safe trip. I will be praying for your journey.
Stop by soon. Country hugs sweetie...Sherry
Congratulations on making it as far as you did! Next time you will go all the way, I'm sure of it! Have a safe trip and a great day!
Oh Kelley, that was just beautiful...I seem to recall that happening. You did a great job, I am sure; but home you are coming, and we await to hear more about your journey. Bisous, Anita
Such a beautiful tribute.
It broke my heart when I heard this story and I said some prayers for the families.
