[drivingpairs] Re: What we do and sell

I'll reintroduce myself to the list as well:
I'm Trish Demers and my stable name is Carpe Diem Farm.  I live in No. Los 
Angeles county CA.,  in the Palmdale/ Lancaster area.  My horsey upbringing was 
in hunters and then I got 'hooked' on driving.  I"ve been driving and training 
for 17 years now. I also will try just about anything to do with horses: 
foxhunting, trail rides, etc.   I drove commercial carriages for 4 years, and 
did 
mounted patrol for 4 years.

 I work with minis to drafts, singles, pairs, tandems.  The great majority of 
my clients are actually elderly persons who need quiet backyard, but 
occasionally showable horses/ ponies.  I've recently aquired a number of 
clients who 
have minis.  We are starting to go to shows, and these folks are getting hooked 
 on driving and competition, and I'm starting 3 mini pairs!

I own Hackney Horses, hackney crosses, and I have a pair of 'Landsdale' 
(Lancaster/ palmdale) pinto ponies that I drive single, pair, and tandem (yes, 
I'm 
a tandemaniac as well..).  I prefer pleasure shows over CDEs, but successfully 
competed in CDE's when my Hackney Horse was younger.  Since then, I've either 
not had a suitable horse, or they've been too young and then I sold them...

I'm involved in a number of local clubs, some that do driving, I give driving 
clinics, occasionally judge,  and love to share my knowledge and train.

I'm lousy at selling horses, but good at acumulating them- VBG
