ABOUT ME

I am the outdoors type who loves all that Mother nature has to offer us mere mortals during the short time that we are here. Have three amazing Daughters, two who are all grown up with children of their own and living in England. Yup Laura (LOZ) (LORA) and Kimberley (KIM)
with their small people Summer and Ryan. Of course we could not forget little sissie Kiera, all of 16 years old living out here with her Mom in Vancouver, Washington.... :-)
Married to my Wife Catie!!
Life is all about Family and sometimes it takes longer to figure that one out as we progress in our lives. Work is really not the be and end all of things...
My relationship with God is very important to me, and it may come of a surprise to some, as I guess for a large part of my life I did not share that side of myself with even those closest to me.... :-(
However, I am making up for that now :-)
Some of us were born Horsemen not Riders, which are you?
Do you thrive to live in the Negative, or do you put a Positive light on life and the things that you set out to do?
Love real Motorcycles, not scooters, and of course Horses... The Daytona is in the drive :-)
2008 will bring new doors opening on both of those loves.
A and M Equestrian Lives and breathes as we speak... www.arabiansandmore.com
and of course it is a registered Trade name in the State of Arizona.
Inspired, yes it has been said of me from time to time....
We are now proud owners of a wonderful Arabian yearling called 'Prestige' AKA "Woody" Just a joy to be around and work with!
So, now the work begins...
Changes "Nickleback" left u for pasture new to two young ladies who will take him to the next level, and in the deal we took there Pure bred arabian mare, who will bred to 'Junior' following the Scottsdale 2009 show..
Also but also another new 10th month old baby Rossi! His Dad is Valentino.....
So watch this space ! :-)

Managed a Top 10 @ Scottsdale with 'Junior' and have 2 more classes to go!

EX-Scot Pat now of course a proud and loyal citizen....
