Clara Little and Calibro at Horse Event, Folsom, LA, May 5, 2007

Our friend Clara Little has been riding horses since grade school, and has quite a bit of experience in horse shows of various kinds. This weekend we traveled to see a bit of what she does, and we were amazed at her level of skill and accomplishment.
