Rob Adams – My first horse was a pony named Little Spot who was all white with a brown head and a blue and brown eye in 1956.  I rode him bareback most of the time as I was to lazy to bother with a saddle.  Rex arrived in 1959 and always was saddled as he would test his rider and was know to bolt for almost any reason (he force me to be a better rider) and Kelly as a foal in 1963, the first horse I trained.  We lived in SW Michigan in a area that was mostly fruit farms (both active and inactive) providing lots of places to ride.  They are all subdivisions now!

Janine Townsend – That’s me and Topsy when I was about 6 years old. And an added bonus….me and the cat when i was about 4 yo!  Janine grew up around the Silver City area of Idaho.
