In reply to Mickey. My condolences to your "youth" and that you won't be able to ride. Pretty much in the same circumstances now. I hope you are doing well after 3 years and staying young!

I had a pinup of Roy and Trigger on my wall. When I was 13, a horse down at the nearby stables had a case of strangles. He was a mount ember of the Palomino Sheriff’s Posse, and the deputy told me if I would care for him through the strangles, that I could ride him when he was well. I was there morning and night to care for Goldie. We had two years of adventure together. When we moved to a farm, my brother bought me a gorgeous palomino..Off Track Quarter Horse. I taught him what I thought were good tricks for parading, but learned later that they were intricate dressage movements! He was not a nice horse, and not one bit friendly, but he was the love of my life. I have owned 12 horses, and Serendipity was by far my favorite, bad boy that he was.

My palomino, Docs or Goldie Docs is a AQHA built forintuitive, trail savvy and so gold that she glistens. What a wonderful partner!

I loved the article! I have a old cardboard stand up of Roy Rogers that I hope soon will be in my renovated “western” basement get away.
I’ve LOVED Palomino horses since I was in the 4th grade and wrote a story about,King,my dream horse.
I bought my first Palomino, in 1974.
I raised one from birth,Sport,who lived for 20 years.
When he died,it took me 2 years to get over it before I could even think about another Palomino.
I did get another one though, even though these days I can’t ride.
I’m 64 years “young” BUT will never loose my love of golden borses!!!
