The other horse was (something or other) Cameo. Roshan was a horse that
Becky bought from Ron Waltenspiel who bought him from our daughter Ellen,
who bought him from a lady up on the Skyline, but can't remember her name.
Roshan was 1/2 Arab, 1/2 Saddlebred and had a difficult temperament that
Ellen was unwilling to put up with.  He also had the much-coveted (in show
circles)Arab flat croup, really quite a lovely horse to look at.  But that
flat croup was a huge disadvantage in climbing and descending steep hills,
and anyone who's been around our part of the country knows what our hills
are like!
I remember Courtney telling the story of buying Cameo and the sellers
telling him to just take Rio because they didn't want him or he was too
small or some such reason.  Courtney was always proud of the fact that the
world's champion endurance horse had been a freebie.  I remember thinking
that's all very well, but Rio's success was due in great measure to
Becky's
skill in riding him.

sold Rio to Becky

They sold the other horse, Roshaan [I think] to Becky....they gave her
Rio.......

She offered to sell him to me for $500 but he was too wild for me to
deal
with at the time.  Good thing, cause there is no way I could have ridden
him
to his potential.......Weird how things happen.....mb
