That must have been fun... I've never been to Virginia (although we were in Ohio/Kentucky this past winter). Famous actor Jimmy Stewart once made a movie near our home place (the ranch) that was suppose to be based in Virginia, so I've always imagined we have elements the same. Oh, yes, the movie's name was "Shanondoah" -- have you heard of it? If you watch the battle scene and see a cow running through it -- we knew the cow!
Oh, sorry, Claire, looks like I misspelled it. Thought so, so went online to check... It's "Shenandoah" and since the movie was made the year I was born, truth-be-told, I didn't know the actual cow personally, but the dairy the cow was from. Also, the movie site was later turned into a housing development (isn't that the way it goes?). I had a friend who lived there in elementary school and we spent wonderful afternoon riding their horses up and down hills through the fields of the as yet undeveloped homesites.
CG, I am unsure of the distinction between cajun and bluegrass, these are the bands Ginny Hawker and Tracy Schwarz, Anderson and Strickland, Montana Young, No Speed Limits, Laura Boosinger. they were all fantastic and the energy of the show was 'real', its been a long time since I have seen live music.
I think "cajun" is further south - Louisiana maybe? Still country but different. Usually a quite distinctive dialect French and English mixed in a patois and some comedy thrown in.
Sort of - I'm no expert.
Blue grass - Kentucky and all through the Appalachians. Lots of banjos and mandolins and fiddles.
Granny, I think then it was more like bluegrass although Tracy Schwarz did do a couple that I would have said were definatley cajun, although he did them in english. they were all really good.
A lifetime of kind horsemanship, I think we were doing natural horsemanship before it was ''invented''
I have completed Level One with Quantum Savvy Natural Horsemanship.
I am sad I can no longer access the Parelli learning platform, its just too expensive with too many changes.
I've tried some clicker training with good results , but haven't found any one person to wholly agree with. I guess I'll just need to keep trying to see what works

Wildside, I think I have heard of the movie, its a shame when you know how beautiful an area was before it was built on.
ok, what band from there? I thought you were talking about a band called "the crooked road" before. Bluegrass?
