Australasia Travel Stories

"My time at the station was the best of my life. I worked there for just over three months. I was given two horses for the duration of my work both of which I had to shoe myself after a lesson in shoeing! I could ride these horses whenever I liked - once drunken bareback riding at 3 in the morning! They were my mustering horses; the station had about 50 horses, maybe more, and they were mostly quarter horses (beautiful horses!)." Lucy Feltham - Outback Ranch
