That's Rebecca!

I have a friend here in Colorado who also lives near me in Texas. Linda grew up loving horses and when I met her she had a horse (Rebecca) that she even transported from Texas to Colorado many summers.

About six years ago when she realized that with so many grandchildren and a part time job that she never had time to ride anymore. So, she donated Rebecca to a Christian Camp (Sky Ranch) with locations in Texas, Colorado and Oklahoma. Last she heard Rebecca was at one of their Texas Camps.

I have mentioned before that I drive to Gunnison, CO usually once a week to the supermarket...well so does Linda. Along the way there is a Christian Camp that is one of the Sky Ranch locations. They offer all sorts of outdoor activities including horse back riding.

Well, you guessed it. Linda and her husband were headed to Gunnison  this week, when all of a sudden Linda spotted Rebecca in a field full of horses at the ranch. She said she yelled "Bruce stop...that's Rebecca". She said that even after six years she could spot her Rebecca anywhere.

To make a long story short. She called the camp to ask it they had a horse named Rebecca thinking maybe that they hadn't changed her name. They told her indeed they did and set up a time for her to visit.

  3. I love that Linda spotted Rebecca and they were able to catch up. I've just been back to read up on missed posts Janey, you certainly have had a busy time with visitors, it will seem so quiet when they all leave. Are you still expecting the flood, or has the threat diminished?
