New Mexico finally feels like they are a part of something, regardless of the fact that he wasn't a New Mexico bred or anything like that. They were in the spotlight and it really makes the state proud.

It is still Quarter Horse country, no doubt about it. If anyone has been out to the All American they know it. There is something very special about Ruidoso on Labor Day weekend. I have been to alot of very big events, and the All American ranks right up there with them in its own, very special sort of way.
