Hi from Arkansas

gypsy · 01-03-2007, 01:22 PM

Hi. I've been reading here for a while but just recently joined so I could post. I live in north central Arkansas. We currently have 18 horses but that number changes fairly often because we buy and sell some. We enjoy buying young horses and starting them then reselling. We never can seem to get below 15 head though. It seems like every time we sell one or two we then replace them.

We have all quarter horses at the moment (3 of them are grade and one is appendix). We sometimes have a paint around. We like good cowbred horses and some running blood. My husband heels and I barrel race a little.

Hi!! I am from Russellville myself... What part of north central, if you don't mind me asking?

Cascy, before you ask, I usually say Russellville because when I say Dardanelle, I get "where?'

cascy · 01-03-2007, 07:45 PM

Hello, I'm from just outside Dardanelle, Ar.

Got any pics of your horses?

gypsy · 01-03-2007, 08:17 PM

I know where Dardenelle is. I'm from Rose Bud. Before you ask where that is-I'm about 20 miles south of Heber Springs (Greers Ferry Lake). I'll post some horse pics as soon as I figure out the photo bucket thing. I actually have more pics of horses that we have sold than horses that we have now-at least decent pics.

Hellooooo from SW Missouri !

We have gaited horses and mules but I love them all. I used to have an Impressive bred QH mare and her daughter by a son of Skipper W. They were awesome but too much horse for me. I love my MFT's and it seems to be mutual
