EN Mailbag: Firefighters and OTTBs

We receive wonderful stories and photos in the Eventing Nation inbox each week. This week’s roundup features firefighter Rowdie Adams, an OTTB named Sunny Smiles making a very creepy face and Denya’s story about setting out on a new OTTB adventure. Have a photo you’d like to submit to EN? Send it to [email protected].

From Michael Adams: “This is a picture of my daughter Rowdie Adams, an upper level event rider, fighting a large grass fire with her team from the Cash Texas Fire Department. She wears pink on cross country too!”

From Stefania Schuller: “This is my daughter Livia Schuller riding her 5yo OTTB mare Sunny Smiles at Seneca on June 23. Yes, that is in fact her name  A little something to brighten everyone’s day …”

From Denya Massey: “Once I get my new pony up and running (not literally, of course, he can already to that!) and do a few local competitions, I’ll do a little story on old people keeping at it. He’s a new horse, 5 yr OTTB (gorgeous, chestnut, smart, sassy, sweet). Not what I thought I’d be doing at my age, but what the hell! With all the ‘young rider of the future’ articles, someone has to talk about those of us who still try to challenge ourselves and have fun doing it!”
