[RC] Dorsey Creek ride and "This joy you feel" - Cindy Collins

First, I want to say how much I enjoyed Lisa's comments on running and
endurance.  I agree w/her totally and her essay really inspired me today. 
Thanks, Lisa.

The Dorsey Creek 25/50 was held on this past Saturday, also in the
"beautiful" Otto desert!  I have put two photos of the area on the
ridecamp  photo album.  We had 15 riders in the 50 miler, I believe, and
nine in the 25 miler.  (We considered this an excellent turn-out since
we're on the same date of the beautiful Black Hills ride which Frank
described so eloquently.)  Friday night we had a fantastic dinner, as
usual...barb-b-qued ribs that melted in your mouth, cheese-sour
cream-potato casserole, salads, breads, and cake.  All home-made by
Jeannette Tolman.  Saturday saw some of our first really warm weather w/
highs in the upper 80s.  I don't have a list of all the finishing order,
but Doris Roesch on her awesome mule, Taj Mahal, won the 50 miler and
Dorothy Sue Phillips won BC on Montana Flyer.  I had a lovely day, getting
the rare opportunity to ride all 50 miles with Kathy Arnold.  We laughed
and told stories about the past.  (For those of you wondering, Kathy was
starting her new 5 yr. old stallion on his first ride so that's why she
was going my speed!)  Anyhow, our next ride in the Big Horn basin area of
Wyoming is on June 14th in Basin, Wyoming.  The ride site is based at the
fairgrounds.  There are stalls for horses and hot showers available.  You
do have to haul out about 2 miles to the start of the ride, but it's worth
it for the camping facilities at the fairgrounds.  Hope to see you there. 
Cindy
