Main Page INDEX My Horses

Hi. My name is Lisa. I am 27 years old, and my life still revolves around my horse. I have a 2003 Red Dun BS Paint Gelding, also registered Buckskin. His name is Dusty registered as The Unprintable Dun.
I have been riding horses practically my whole life. I haven't always been able to afford that perfect horse, in fact I don't have a perfect horse now. Though I do have a really nice one. I have gained a lot of horse knowledge from being in 4-H for a number of years, as well as, pony club for 3 years. I am very involved in 4-H, I competed in a number of different aspects of horse 4-H. Over the years I did Driving, Performance, Gaming, Horsebowl, Groomsquad, Green Horse, record books, etc. I also have entered Photography pictures, Pencil Drawings, Pastel Paintings, etc. I have held different offices over the years in 4-H, such as Treasurer, Secretary, and Newsletter editor. All of which I have done for at the least 2 years. Now that I am out of 4-H I am becoming a 4-H leader, so that I can help continue to keep kids learning about horses in a safe manner.
I can't afford to take regular lessons so I have just taken lessons here and there, when I can afford them. I like taking lessons from a lot of different trainers that way I can choose technics I like and put them together and use what I want depending on the horse I am riding. In this past year I have been lucky enough to be a working student at a Hunter/Jumper stable. In the past I have only been able to afford to take lessons 1-2 times a year. One year after saving up for 2 years I took a years worth of lessons. Other years I was lucky enough to have the older 4-Hers help me, but now I am the older 4-Her and enjoy passing on my knowledge to the less experienced.
We went throught the aisleways like this and our parents yelled "horse coming through".
