The Morgan Mile Road Race By Heather Pinet

I hadn’t planned on going this year, but since its beginning I’ve always wanted to. How fortunate am I to have the Morgan Mile within driving distance, to be able to see and experience the history?
We were in VT just a few weeks ago, for the Lippitt Country Show. We were able to make the trek to see both of the Justin Morgan grave stones, with Mrs. Childs as our kind hostess. Standing on that hillside on a hot sunny day, envisioning the horse in all his glory gave me goosebumps. It even brought my chatterbox daughter to a moment of silence. We were in awe, and it truly felt inspirational.

HARWICH TYRANT ‘S YEAR END ACHIEVEMENTS, 2009
The Old Dominion Morgan Horse Association (ODMHA) and the Virginia Carolinas Morgan Horse Club (VCMHC) both held their Year-End Awards dinners on November 14th, 2009, so naturally we could only attend one of them. The tabulators of these awards need to be commended, since it has got to be a Herculean task. My husband Cecil Jones and I attended the ODMHA dinner along with our friend Sylvia Brohawn of Show Offs Equine Displays.
Our stallion, Harwich Tyrant, was once again shown by Kimber Sobeck in 2009. This year, however, his show schedule was paired down to a minimum, so we were thrilled to hear Lillian Thomas announce that Tyrant has taken the Open Competition Championship! He was also Reserve Champion in Working Hunter, Halter, and Dressage. This sixteen year old horse can still show what a Morgan can do!

Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, OK
I must say that I have never been to Oklahoma, but I was looking forward to attending the second annual Women and Horses Exposition held in Guthrie, OK.
Walking in downtown Guthrie is like stepping into the Victorian era. The truly magnificently designed architecture of Oklahoma’s first capital now is a hot spot for tourism.
