Pierre parade of lights and pony rides











Yesterday was a resounding success!! We made it to Pierre, gave tons of pony rides, the Pierre newspaper came out and took pictures of the kids and horses. Then we got all ready for the parade, lit up the horses, got the glitter out. And they were all perfect angels throughout the parade. It was a great day, everything went well, the horses behaved perfectly, the kids had a great time. Frank and Echo stayed and rode in the parade with us, Bobbie also came and rode as did Don's brother Jack and his wife Linda. They horses looked absolutely great. The glitter turned out perfect and got tons of compliments on how the glitter looked so good on the horses.




We went out and had a great dinner afterwards, laughed and had a good time. Long drive home, got home about 3am. But it was well worth it.




Ruth and Fox got along great, I tell you what it takes a special horse to carry a 68 year old woman through a lighted Christmas parade.




The horses and riders, Don on Icicle Moon, Terri on Blue Valentine, Phil on Preacher, Skylar on Feather, Trystan on Maggie, Frank on Domino, Echo on Blue Ribbon, Jazzmine on Valentino, Sondra on Cenisa, Makayla on Houdini and Ruth on Fox. Can't wait for tonight, it is the Rapid City parade of lights and we are ready to rock and roll. This one is going to be televised live by the local news station.
