Challenge for the CA Clique: Can anyone identify this rider?

Twiggy used to ride a big Appaloosa with a reptile kind of name. Was it Alligator? Margie Engle sized person on 17 hand, 1300 lbs of spotted hulk. Also think it was spelled DiAnne Lundy. Who else remembers this trivia?

From Allergy Valley USA

Okay, everyone’s got the appy names correct.

Man, I was goin’ with the Dick Lundy reference. He was the race horse trainer… well, before the other racetrack/hunter trainer, Darrell Vienna, Kris Vienna’s hubby, who was Kim Anderson’s sister who rode West Point.

“Friends don’t let friends eat fish tacos.”

Wasn’t that where Merry got lost awhile back? At the Mississippi? Something keeps nigging at the back of yeah ole brain concerning this.

Alex is that you??? Why how nice of you to drop in, and bring us that lovely question. Hmmmm, cells fading fast. Can we have a year pleeeease?

ya, i was like a big young then too. But now that i think about it, it does look like Cindy, it could be her.

Since it is a Working Hunter class I would think it is 4’

If you look at my profile the jump Bumpkin and I are doing is similar, but 3’6" A/O and looks smaller than Dublin’s horse.

See, I thought of Diane, too, but she is not that much of an Amazon, LOL, and Peggy was/is taller than me, which qualifies her to play point guard for the WNBA.

I was going to mention Cindy Hough-Brooks as being too young, but then that would be once again reminding myself of my OWN age, and that was far too painful.

As for the dairies… we live over a bridge and down the street from a ton of them. Since my dad grew up on the family dairy, I kinda like them, but during the fall, when the fog lingers on the cow paddies, well… For better or worse, both the TB horse farms and dairies are being replaced by housing tracts.

I am not a West Coaster, but I do know that Larry Langer is now married to Maryne, but he used to be married to someone named Diane. And there was a first wife, too, I think…

Wtywmn can probably fill us in correctly after the weekend!! LOL

Was it Twiggy that rode Alligator though?

I thought it was Sandra Griffith or Poncho Frankl Kahn.

Twinkie Nissan use to ride a big Appy jumper perhaps she rode him too?

Definately right on Diann Lundy’s name!!!

Beezer, there is a Rocky Peak stables off of Topanga, but not next to White Oak. Right next door to White Oak is a place called Wild Wind I believe. Both are basically across the street from Sleepy Hollow.

No one will ever let me live that down, will they? Everytime we encounter a winding body of water I get this, “So… is that the Mississippi?”

On our recent trip to Spruce Meadows, as we flew over Oregon and Washington, my mom kept asking me questions because I had the window. “Is that Mount Shasta? Is that Mount Ranier? Is that Crater Lake?” I kept totally silent.

“Friends don’t let friends eat fish tacos.”

Hm … why do I want to say it was Francie? (I know, I know: Who cares what I want? )

By looking at the photo, noting the date, and seeing it’s a pretty blond… I’m guessing it’s an Osterkamp, as in Peggy Osterkamp (then Pinza now Osterkamp again). Anyway, her dairy is down the street from my house. But I haven’t run into her for a while. But that’s my guess.

Do I win anything if I’m right? If it’s something big, I might even go to the dairy and ask!

I used to drive by (eek! the smell) on the way back from that castle amusement bark thing (in Riverside maybe??)…
