From there, I owned more horses, and at one time, while I was in high school, I owned 7 and it was a lot work to keep them all ridden!  I have owned morgans, quarterhorses, appaloosas, paints, saddlebreds, and welsh ponies.  Then was introduced to the American Baskir Curly horses and in 1984 I bought my first filly.

While not a beautiful breed, as many other breeds are, these horses stole my heart!  I found them to be so easy to train, they have a sense of humor, they love obstacles, and many are gaited.  They are not spooky and tend not to bolt in face of danger.  They are sturdy and athletic, and for those with allergies, they are proven to be hypoallergenic.  Most of all they love to GO! And they love their masters!! I had to sell my horses when I got divorced in 1994.  Last year, my daughter and I found a curlie mare and filly in Texas and this has started us back with our beloved breed.  I bought Stag Creek Celeste at 8 months old.  She is now a going on two and she will go to a trainer in the spring.
