More About Me!
This section is about my interests besides horses & rodeo.
I should mention however, that I thoroughly enjoy training my own horses as well as competing. There is a great satisfaction and sense of accomplishment that I feel when all of our hard work pays off! So in addition to competing I enjoy spending time training and improving myself and my horses. I really enjoy roping and
wish I had time to get serious about it, but barrel racing is my priority! First
of all I enjoy Web design, as you may have noticed!
I'm very excited to be building my business and it's my goal to make Web design
my full time career. For several years I donated time to our local Rodeo Queen Board.
I still enjoy helping and supporting our Rodeo Royalty. Giving riding lessons is something I
enjoy and have some experience with, I work mostly with children. I love
teaching and I like to pass on what I have learned and gained from working with horses throughout my life.
I have a great appreciation for nice cars. I especially like old Chevelles
and Comaros.
I used to be a die hard Chevy fan but the Chevy truck I had for eight years
convinced me otherwise. I recently purchased a '98 3/4 ton Dodge and so
far, so good!
I used to enjoy watching demo derbies and stock car races however I don't get into that much anymore. I guess those things aren't as common here as they were in the area where I grew up. Which is fine as I never really fit in "east of the Missouri" anyway! I enjoy snowmobiling
and four wheeling,
but again it's a rarity that I get to do those things.
As far as music
goes I listen to almost anything. I really seem to like a wide variety of music. I
like to keep in shape so I try work out on a regular basis. I love being outdoors and enjoy roller-blading, walking, and riding bike.
I also love swimming and
doing cool dives off high diving boards. I love the water so I enjoy kicking back at the lake on occasion. For a few years (in high school) my main interest and
hobby was going out
and partying with friends. I still like to go out on occasion but I'm not nearly as wild as I once was!
I like all aspects of art and design. I enjoy doing pencil drawings when time allows. Some other things I like are
photography, snow skiing, spending time with family, friends, pets,
listening to music, reading, traveling, and meeting new
people.
I also love to go dancing! I was very fond of my Appaloosa mare but there is nothing quite like an American Quarter Horse when it comes to rodeo.
I am proud to say I have two young Quarter Horse geldings who I think are great
barrel horse prospects. I love dogs and grew up watching Lassie on TV. For my
eighth birthday I got a collie puppy from my Mom. We raised three litters
of puppies with Missy, she was a great dog. I also like Australian Shepherds and
am very fortunate to have an adorable one named Tess. She is an exceptional
athlete and very smart! I wish I had more time to work with her as she has the
potential to go far in several areas. I would like to work stock with her and
the area where she would really shine is in on the agility course. My birthday
is in March, so that makes me a Pisces. Anymore it seems that riding and working consume most of my time. As you can see I have lots of interests but there are certain things that I prioritize over others!
