2008:
Apollo is still the love bug that he was while he was at Rutgers.
Everyone that meets him absolutely loves him, and no one thinks he is
as young as he is. Although he is just over 16.2 in the withers, his
rump is close to 17h. He has been undersaddle now for about 5 months
and has been an absolute angel. In only a few months he already
understands his commands to walk, trot, and move off leg. Recently we
have been playing with ground poles and started on the canter. I have
not found anything that he will not let me do. Apollo is great to have
around the barn and has everyone constantly giving him attention. He is
very spoiled by all the love he gets and always puts a smile on
everyone including me.

2009:
At Hermes' first and second H/J shows last
spring with Jen Duelfer (Cook College grad!), he was shown on the flat only. He did very well - in the ribbons
in every class. He LOVES the show ring. Later in the summer, we did a Bucks
County Dressage show and he scored 62 and 65 in Training Level 1 and 2. Not too
shabby for a four year old! We'll be continuing with dressage this
year.

Duchess was sold in 2008. This is what her new owner has to say about her:
When I got her, she
was very green under the saddle but was sweet and willing to work with. I
started her with natural horsemanship training and she learned quickly. During the summer of 2009, I moved Duchess to a
great barn and she loaded into the trailer fairly easily. We have made our way
into the park and she was nervous (not spooky) but I know that will pass with
time. In the fall of 2010, Duchess will be making the journey upstate with me to
school next year and I know we both will have a great time together. I've had
good and bad moments with Duchess but never - not even once - have I regretted
buying her. She is the best horse I could have asked for and being around Duchess
will always make a bad day much better - every time.
2007:
I love Duchess. She turned out to be a gem. I was able to get on
her back with few to no issues and have taken her out over a dozen
times; many times walking near cars and having my goat (playmate for
her) follow behind. We have been on the beach around 8 times. She
is so sweet and intelligent. She is already learning what
leg pressure means and is starting to comprehend the concept of neck
reining. I got such a great deal for a wonderful horse. She is nearly
16 hands and still growing. Her physique is changing as well - she is
getting broader and more developed.

affectionately as the "Cowgirls." They are enjoying a wonderful
life on a multi-thousand acre farm and are always the highlights of
their hunting jaunts. They are owned by the twins riding them in
