Beautiful!(0)

The pictures and film brought tears to my eyes. Mrs. Reeves reminds me of my 80 year old aunt who still rides today and goes with me every chance she gets. Thank you for the capturing the young and the old.

See the world from the back of a horse(0)

There’s nothing like seeing the the world from the back of a horse. It just makes everything alright again. Everybody should try it, maybe people would get their mind right.

She embodies the spirit of an American Cowgirl more [...]
