"...Someone said, well, they can't compare to a quarter horse, I almost
flipped. And they said, they can't do all the things quarter horses can do??
People in the east just don't know what Haflingers are all about..."

Hi, Francine -
I get that too - things like, "You RIDE that??" LOL! Of course
I do! :-) I am a hair under 5', EllieMae is 13.2 hands. She's
short n' draft built, and I'm short n' ..... wellllll, let's just say, also
"round" :-)
.
Francine, I'll separate email this photo to you ... but here on
this page ... top, first photo .... _www.RockyMountainTrails.net/TrailBuddies_
(http://www.RockyMountainTrails.net/TrailBuddies) We are trail
riders, in some often rugged terrain in the Rocky Mountains. This photo is
last summer. Ellie and I rode to the top of the Continental Divide, near
Guanella Pass. This was hardly our first, trip, either! ;-) Haffies are
hardie little trail mounts - sure footed with stamina where it counts, for a
mountain mount! :-)
This photo also shows that Haffies are for the everyday person,
too - not just the expensive show ring venue ;-)

"...I would like to have some fabulous pictures depicting every discipline
they are involved ... When I get this project together , everyone can have
a copy!..."
.
That would be awesome - please mark me down for a copy! Or, if
you announce it on the list, I'll see it, and write back! :-)
