Hi Everybody -
Just thought I'd pass this on -
Many of us remember Fred Imus who took lessons from Scott Raftery a while back and showed a few times at Robertson's in Benson. This morning I ran across an online article that said he passed away last weekend. He was found in his trailer Saturday, August 6, no cause of death mentioned. He was certainly a colorful character and one of those people I wish I had known better and wish I had been able to catch his radio show. I copied the article about him if somebody wants it. (Couldn't figure out how to attach it to this.)
Adios, Peggy

July 2011

Whoa! It's already been a couple of months since I blogged last! Still not much going on in my world and I haven't heard any juicy stuff so have absolutely nothing to report. I manage to ride once a week and soak in the air conditioner the rest of the time. Getting bored.................but only a couple more months of this!
seeya!

May Blog

Hey! I hope everybody has cool plans for the summer. I don't. I will just stay here and melt.

The Western Nationals are going on this week and I've watched a little of it on the internet.
Looks nice and cold there. Here's to the SACHA members that went: Richard Searle, Steve
Taylor, Karen and Hank True, BJ and Melissa Johnson, Lynda Collins, Lisa Haldane, Nina Hardin,
Drew Dunham and Scott Raftery. Sorry if I missed anybody!

Keep checking in. If anything interesting happens I'll let you know!

Howdy!
Postcards went out for the March 26 show - coming up!

There's a great picture taken by Christine Smith at the March 5 show that should be posted
in the Photo Album soon. Thanks Christine! We should have a contest for a caption. Al Alvarez
thought it should be something like "Hey - doesnt' Alvarez look great sitting on the fence over there?"
(I already told him it sucked.)

The next one is March 5 - "reminder postcards" are coming out soon.
Laurie MIlls looking for a a2 horse slant trailer again. If anyone knows of one, let me know.
Thanks!

NCHA Show Dec 31-Jan 1

Our NCHA show was great!! After a few nervous moments wondering what the weather was going to do, we went ahead
and had a good show and the weather turned out pretty nice after all. Thank you to all who came on down and supported our efforts!
Judge Willie Richardson made it all the way down from Colorado after a lay up in Show Low and Jimmy Kemp had to
fill in for him the first day so a special THANKS to those guys. Just shows what can get done if people are willing to show up, pitch in and make it work.
There should be some pictures of Year End Award winners for 2010 posted under "Photo Album" by now and I'll be posting a list of all winners in a later blog. Congratulations!
