Family values take on a whole new meaning in MAGAville.
The father of twelve children, who promotes families having more children, spent Thanksgiving with none of them. Instead, he was discussing video games with Barron and awkwardly bopping to YMCA, referred to as the ‘Gay National Anthem’.

Hey, remember the 90s when conservatives kvetched constantly about HRC's influence in policy-making, bc "no one elected her?"
Helluva historical whiplash to see the GOP 30 yrs later cheering on not just an unelected illegal immigrant (Elon) influencing WH policy, but HIS MOM--HIS MOM--joining in.

Panimetro on the cover of the VICCTRE calendar. Virgin Islands Community Cooperative Thoroughbred Retirement Effort. He was adopted from Habitat for Horses in a cooperative with VICCTRE in March of 2007 just after he was brought here from the Virgin Islands. I took him in as a rescue in 2008.

Khan's first jumping show. He won 3rd place of 34 entries! I didn't jump him at shows (this is of another rider). He was too big and I had already broken my arm after a fall from another horse. I had to promise my work I wouldn't jump :( but I did jump at my place over smaller jumps.

After a show, Khan was so easy to ride, that I would ride him bareback and with a blanket on! I couldn't sit his huge trot bareback, but his canter was to die for, even bareback.

Rocki - Glenord's Rocket Dancer and me at a Dressage show. We got 2nd. She could do anything. We rode English Hunt Seat, Dressage, Western Riding and Dressage, trail. She was bomb-proof when she was young. She got feisty as she aged, possibly from a tumor which may be why she died from colic.

Rocki's bloodline was from a champion Budweiser Clydesdale named Clan Butter Glenord's Glened x Rocket To Antares, an Appaloosa racehorse, hence the Glenord's Rocket Dancer aka Rocki.

Rocki and I at a show. Dressage equitation. Rocki's name was from Glenord's Rocket Dancer. She was called baby when I got her; Rocki sounded like baby. I named her this for her AWB registration.
