Tevis Cup 2014

Yesterday, Linda and I drove up to Robinson Flat to greet the 2014 Tevis Cup riders. Robinson Flat is roughly the first 36 miles of this one-day hundred mile equestrian event. There, we were happy to see my former mare Gypsy, whose mount was Jim Mather. For more on Jim, I refer you to our TV interview with him: http://youtu.be/t8t2Th0ArPkhttp://youtu.be/eBupmHVZkOE  . All in all were also happy to see Yam and Ilan Dvir ranchers from Israel. They were riding mounts provided by Michel Bloch. For more about Mr. Bloch, I refer you to his TV interview:    http://youtu.be/lvAYFu87amQ
 Among the front runners were Tom Johnson (see his TV interview    http://youtu.be/wFP0ff__zyY ).
 A little further back were Robert and Melissa Ribley and Kathie Perry.   There TV interviews are as follows: Kathie Perry  http://youtu.be/lQjC_2Q-g38  ;  Dr. Melissa Ribley  http://youtu.be/m_5UdeirPS4,
When it was all said and done, competitive, Tom Johnson came in third place minutes behind the winner Heather Bergantz Reynolds. And for the first time in the illustrious history of the Tevis, two buckles were awarded to the two Israelis.
Congratulations go to all 107 finishers of the 186 starters. This is an historic event and more information is provided in my book “It Has Nothing To Do With Age.”

All in all, keep moving, smiling, laughing, bonding, appreciating and loving as it’s all good for you.
