Today's photos were sent to me by Paul Perreault, who is the proud Grandpa of the young lady in the photos. That first shot is Ashley competing in a horse competition at which she took a second place for Soldier and her performance that day. Then Paul went on to tell me that he took Ashley to the U.P. State Fair in Escanaba a few weeks back, because she wanted to pet a Clydesdale horse. Once that mission was completed, Paul said she was ready to go home. It didn't make any difference that there were so many other things to do there at the fair, she had done what she had come there for and she was a happy girl, which in turn, makes a happy Grandpa, too!

Congratulations Ashley! Way to go!!!

I LOVE Clydesdales. They are the most majestic horse. Something about those critters just touches my soul....fabulous.....I LOVE those Budweiser commercials that folks pass around on emails too...just an amazing horse!

Again..congrats Ashley...very impressive!

And congrats to Grandpa too. I know my Grandpa was my HERO...I'm sure Paul is in that status with Ashley!

My wife would enjoy looking at these, as she really likes horses.

A long time ago I went to the Houghton County Fair and I went walking through the barn where horses and thier young owners were. I walked by one stall and started talking to the young lady and she told me her horse is not drinking the water because it had chlorine in it. She said her horse was use to well water from the farm. Sometimes I like county fairs that the state fairs.

I meant to put 'than' the state fairs. It posted just as I was ready to correct it.

That's the way Ashley! Stay with horses and the shows and you will be forever thankful!! I showed as a kid in the timed events, barrel racing, pole bending etc., our daughter showed in the west./eng. pleasure, halter, and showmanship. She was undeafeated in 4 of those events for 5 yrs, running. Even tho Michelle is almost 30 now, she still proudly displays her Grand/res. championships, blue and red ribbons along with the photos. She still rides her retired horses today around home. Horses and dogs, wonderful pets!

Cats too!

Yes, cats too! My cat Bagheera was best in show for top-of-refrigerator sitting and standing in front of the monitor.

He must be proud. Cindy your cat is just screening the information for you first.

...or maybe he's eyeballing the mouse.
