                           Highlights
                           of the Year
                            
                            
                            
                            
                            
                           One
                           of the great high-lights of this past year was having
                           the opportunity to ride two of the very first
                           Premarin foals that we rescued from the auctions in
                           Canada. This past fall my partner in E.P.O.N.A. Mary,
                           and I took the opportunity to saddle up Journey and
                           Mr. C and take them out on the trail together for the
                           very first time.  Just turning four we started
                           these two under saddle earlier in the summer but
                           never rode them together. It was a great joy for Mary
                           and I to have ridden two of our very first rescues
                           together.  
                               
                           Mr.
                           C (front gray) and Journey (bay) at E.P.O.N.A.
                           shortly after their arrival to E.P.O.N.A. in 1999. 
                           These two have been
                           adopted by members of E.P.O.N.A. and frequent events
                           that we participate in, to promote the quality of
                           Premarin foals and to help educate the public of the
                           fact that thousands of foals like these go to
                           slaughter every year.
