Welcome Knox Family

Missy, Carol and Dave we are very happy to welcome you and your horses Magic, Macarian, & Margarita to Gusty Wind! So far its been a lot of fun riding with you!

Chelsea-all grown up-Class 2009!

Chelsea graduated! Yay Chelsea! Chelsea has been riding at Gusty Wind Acres Riding School since she was 6 (or maybe 7) years old. She rode just about all the school horses that anyone can remember like Valentine, Honey, Bobby, Luke, Autumn, Valentine, Reo, Mischief, Mocha, Flyer (oh yes she can tell stories about her) DESI, Buddy, Long Legs, Mischief, & Kolt. Some of them aren't even with us anymore. It is safe to say that all of those horses shaped her in someway. Yet, she brightened their days every time she came for a lesson. She always had a goodie and a kind word for each one.

She started out on Valentine, a little bitty girl on a lunge line. Then she got to ride Honey and Desi. (She missed out on Rocket-that was your loss Chelsea!) Then Luke and Autumn followed. Then somewhere around that time Sherri started to ride! First she did a lot of paper work for me, but then she started to ride. We got her hooked too. Then Sherri started doing barn work and since Chelsea was her mother's biggest helper--she did barn work too! She went in shows and had her ups and downs there too.

Then some time past and they GOT A HORSE. Yes darling Cameo came along. At first they probably wondered can we handle this girl?? Yes they could! Now Chelsea is an equal partner with her mother in training and caring for Cameo. Once she graduates from Art School she'll probably even help with the bills!

She approaches each horse with care and understanding. when she and her mom get here the horses (mostly those white mares & Luke) come up for treats! She also is a riding instructor in her own right and an accomplished horse woman.


Now she is planning to become an interior decorator and is enrolled at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. It is a bachelor's degree program! So Yay Chelsea! We all love you!


Then this guy came along and we thought we might lose her, but no she loves horses more! Haha Brad!
Nice prom picture kid, but you look better in riding clothes. Be careful Brad, Cameo might take offense to that hand around her girl!



Another lovely shot of a beautiful girl!

See I told you she loves horses most! She had her party in the INDOOR ARENA! (We still have a balloon floating around to prove it!)

Here's the proud Mama! I wonder if she's recovered from all that graduation celebrating!

That lady put her heart and soul into making things nice for Chelsea!

Chelsea don't forget us just because you went to the big city! You still have to come out

so you don't forget how to ride!

Love, the horses (especially Cameo)

Congatulations Courtney on your new horse Jasmine

Courtney purchased a 4 year old tricolor paint mare name Jasmine! She is a real beauty. We are all very happy for her.
