Photo Of The Week – 2/23/11
February 24, 2011
Since we just returned from Arizona, it seems appropriate to feature El Mariachi as the Photo of the Week. Both he and Hope look wonderful. I hope to have a full post about our trip uploaded in the next week or two. What a great time we had visiting the horses, Michael Blake and several Facebook buddies.
For those that don’t yet know the story of these two horses, here is the link: “Rescuing An American Icon.”

Just realized that I had missed several of your updates about El Mariachi & Hope. Lovely lovely
pictures – bring tears to my eyes.
Do hope your mom is doing well – she looked well in the pictures.
Got an email from ASPCA this am saying the BLM was going to change how it manages the horses???
I certainly hope & pray thats true
Little hard to believe tho after watching these roundups.
Keep up the good work
