Riding In Style at the Biltmore Estate (I Rode the White Horse!)
Wednesday, October 03 2012
By Jan Westmark-Allan I rode the white horse at the Biltmore Estate today – looking pretty snazzy! Today I rode in style!! Yes, I rode a white horse around the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina.(ok not the one in the photo above). The perfect ride! (Which reminds me that I will tell you about the Perfect Paint soon – but first we talk about riding with the Vanderbilts!) I rode a horse named Hunter, a grey Arabian owned by a friend of mine. I rode with Brenda and Phoenix – Brenda knows the miles and miles of trails at the Biltmore like the back of her hand (hoof, in Phoenix’s case)
