He was a cranky but lovely old man with a heart of gold who had his 4 or so dogs that followed him all around the property. Cinnamon, Snippet, Pup, and his favorite, a boxer named Bootsie. His stallions, Beau, Big Red Romper and Nevada Dandy were his Pride and Joy and his biggest thrill was watching his niece Cheryl get on a horse only to see it buck wildly and he would hoot and hollar "RIDE EM" SHERRY!!" I am almost 50 and I still miss Harry as he would travel west and bring back bags of turqouise and let us barn rats pick a pretty ring from the bag upon his return. When he "retired" he gave me a filly from one of his mares who I broke myself. I had the time of my life out there and Harry taught me so much. Little dod I know he was from such an important family, as I was only 10-15 yrs old at the time. But he left a lasting impression on me. When he died and left his land to the state for the benefit of wildlife, that really struck a chord in me and maade me appreciate him and what he stood for even more. I am still learning from him to this day.Melissa Nathannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-73573895546722207652007-09-26T08:40:00.000-07:002007-09-26T08:40:00.000-07:00Hi, I was doing some searches on the web and your ...Hi, I was doing some searches on the web and your site popped up.
