Way up, Since you asked, I will add this...... Sorry, Allan! I know you will loose all respect for me now. Send me your address and I will send you my $.25. My first Love was, and still is Big Red Tractors (IH). My 2nd love was Horses, precisely, Ropeing Horses! I didn't take up Ropeing till my last year of college. Basicly I roped 3 nites a week for 10 years. Got dam good at it. We roped sick cattle on wheat pasture in the fall and winter, on grass pasture in the summer and every Jackpot ,or Ropeing Club Team ropeing that could be found. So what does this have to do with the subject at hand today....Everything!. THE AMERICAN QUARTER HORSE!!!. Their Hdqts are @ Amarillo,Texas. Just Google it and follow it to thir web site. Anyway there is no other horse(period) that has the speed ,endurance, stamitna to do what they do. Be it from the Git-go to 1/4 mile or go all day long from before sun up to way after dark. NOT an Appalossa, Thoroghbred, Arabian, Morgan, Welch, Draft horse of any kind. The Quarter horse is an American Product not Europiean, or South AM., But American.I personally would not buy any horse but a Quarter Horse. Easy temperment. Typically they ave 14 to 15.5 Hands high. The perfect height for working cattle, ropeing, cutting, pleasure events, Also not so far to fall when you get pile driven into the ground by a green broke colt. The flying can fun ,it is the sudden stop that is the killer. Just be sure to lengthen out your stirups on those broncie colts. I appoligise for this long rambling but I hope it helps answer your queations. Later, John A.

Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
