Parker, Colorado Christmas Carriage Parade 2002

On November 30, 2002, we took our big mare Dinah to the Parker, Colorado Christmas Carriage Parade.  Our friends Gary Smith and Marie Harrity from Snow Ghost Farms met us there with their yearling gypsy horse filly, "Holly".  Holly and Dina hadn't seen each other since April, on a rainy mountainside in England, but they were thrilled to see one another again.  They both were complete dolls during the whole parade, and were a big hit!  We all had so much fun we already can't wait until next year.

Getting Fluffed up and ready to go

There's a lot of waiting in Parades.  Here, Jeff and Dina (and Holly too) wait for the "GO"

Holly and "Da Boys" come back from the Convenience store, where they picked up some good buns for gypsy horse treats!  Santa waits in the background.

Holly meets a Mini with Attitude! / More waiting around. 

Gary and Marie Lean on Holly while we wait to go / Marie poses with her "Mini-Me"

Finally, we're moving along... Sort of.  Start and Stop, Start and Stop...

Then end of the day.  Thomas our little guy (4 years, same age as Dina!), supervises the unhooking - Untacking and a quiet ride with Jeff aboard
