Prayers for the Hatzman family and Cory....

My husband and I often discuss how our hobby has changed every thing about our lives. We laugh about how we talk to and spend more time with our horse show friends than people that live next door. The only time we have to socialize is at a horse show or via Facebook, Twitter a blog or a text message. Most of our free time is spent riding and caring for our horses, cleaning our barns and the many other chores involved with our four-legged friends. Horse show people become your real friends and family and in times of need those are the people who will rise to the occasion and lend an ear, a prayer or a helping hand.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Billy Hatzman a talented central Kentucky barrel racer who lost his father in a car accident this week.

We also send out prayers and get well wishes to Cory Lampkin who re-broke his leg yesterday. Cory is a wonderful youth rider from Tennessee who broke is leg a few weeks back during a run a the Fourtune Five. Cory was well on his way to recover and actually made a couple exhibition runs on Saturday at the Morristown show. Cory is back in the hospital and will undergo surgery.
