Louise Ring, 17/05/08 - 7/06/08
There were so many things but some of them were the cattle ranch (where at night we sat around the fire listning to Nate's songs and poems), the beutiful trail rides, the clinic with Richard Winters and the trips to Cody and Thermopolis.

The highlights were the people, the location and the horses. I have actually ended up agreeing to buy one particular horse that I fell in love with, and am having her shipped over to England- I had no intention of buying a horse when I went out there so I can say in all honesty that the trip has changed my life!
