Memories

From Baron Malcolm Alberic:

What I remember is that when we saw that this event was in Norco we of The Dreiburgen Light Horse decided to dispense with our tradition of riding to local equestrian events.

Though we had made the ten mile ride from House Montrose in Pedley to Norco before, a twenty mile round trip by horse tends to take up much of the day. In the interest of saving time we decided to trailer over two green broke horses that needed some show experience instead.

We had a lot of fun and I still have the glass stein that I won for 1st place Quintain displayed in my living room curio cabinet.
