Wendy had to laugh when I asked her how she first
got involved in horses. Her Mother recommended riding lessons
as an activity that she might enjoy and Wendy remembers saying "Why
would I want to do THAT..." Then after a move to Upstate New York, a father's promise to the three daughters led to a horse for each girl. Not long after, during a trip to Ringtown Pennsylvania a connection with Mrs. Marilyn Childs was made and Wendy was allowed to stay for a weeks worth of riding lessons. It was also around that time that the Weber family purchased the mare Figurine (Upwey King Merrymaid x Cornwallis) in foal to Lippitt Mandate. After the week of lessons, Wendy participated in her first show - the Mid-Atlantic Morgan Horse Show, riding the Childs horses. Listen to Wendy tell the story of Dolly her first horse and how it all began... |
