| Our trip to Virginia resulted in a surprise. This is Sprite's sire, "Keeper", an 8 y.o. Mountain Pleasure/Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse (now gelding). We decided to bring him back with us - to stay! He and Rusty have really hit it off. |
|
| "Fluffy Bunny Meets The Cupcake": our mighty palominos have been nicknamed by our friends! Surely this will strike fear in everyone's hearts... Son and father meeting up for the first time in 9 months. |
|
| At the new barn, Sprite and Keeper are turned out together for the first time. |
|
| A little "father & son talk" over some nice hay... |
|
| Sprite checks out the paddock (at a trot), as Keeper gaits alongside. There are three others in an adjacent paddock - a ShireX, a Morgan, and a donkey. Field is still too wet for pasture turnout. |
|
| Me and Sprite over Labor Day weekend, still in Virginia and getting ready for a trail ride before heading home. I am trying to 'dance on air'....! |
|
| This is Woodwind Sundancer, one of our breeders' senior stallions. He is a Mountain Pleasure Horse, 7 years old, and has been a wonderful ambassador for the mountain breeds at several horse expos. No slouch, he is exceptional under saddle, on the ground, and has been used by Don West as a last minute fill-in when his demo horse was unavailable! |

| This is our new Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse, "Sprite". He is 3 1/2, stands 14.3, and was bred and trained at Woodwind Farms in Virginia. His willingness, calm disposition, and overall dependability is fantastic! Not to mention the incredible gait |
|
| Sprite's sire, "Woodwind Keeper", 1996 MPHA/KMSA standing at Woodwind Farms. He puts beautiful gait on his get, as well as passing along the friendly, agreeable disposition so typical of the mountain horse breeds. |
|
| This is my husband and his horse, "Zeus". Just a little pasture visit - (August 2002) |
|
| This is about the best photo you'll ever see of me! My husband, Rusty, is holding Atlas, and I am making sure our grandson, Rhys (2 1/2 in this 8/02 shot), won't slid off ol' Atty-Butt. |

Sprite as a sprout with mom Ginger. Don't you love the expression on his little face? January '00 |
|
| Sprite as a 2 y.o. - check out those dapples. Nice balance. This shot caught my eye on their website, but at that time someone else was supposedly buying him. Still, I figured there had to be others of similar type. I was correct - but never thought I'd actually have the chance to buy HIM! |
