Just thought I would >> ask.. You know, I don't really have one. I like most breeds and and especially like a horse that's got a good mind, good conformation and movment. I've gone from Arabs and Morgans to Quarters, I've also worked or work a Paint, a Saddlebred, an Arab Stud, etc etc etc at the stable I keep the girls at currently. I've ridden and liked a lot of breeds. A good horse is a good horse is a good horse.

I can't remember which one is where. You didn't really go north enough to see it.. The Sierra's runs pretty much down the center of the state.. it's a very nice range of mountains, and you get such great places like Yosemente there.. luckily.. you didn't try for the park this year.. going to take them a LONG time to clean it up from this winter.. they got badly flooded out. Seems we had the equivelent of a 100 year rain in many parts of the state. >> -> > Yeah as it turned out it was a pretty good route. Saw all of them >> >> -> windmills out in the desert too.
