RE: [RC] Video of the 101 year old 'cowgirl' - Karen Lynd

Connie Reeves truly was an inspiration.  She died 7 weeks before her 102nd birthday, a couple weeks after falling from her horse (the paint in the video).  She broke a vertebrae in her neck but was recovering when she died of cardiac arrest.  Her thoughts on her fall?  She stated that her dismount may have been her last, but it was not as graceful as she would have hoped!  Here is a wonderful article about her life and death:  http://www.sptimes.com/2003/09/07/Floridian/A_cowgirl_s_final_ride.shtml

Sweet!!  I don't really want to live that long, unless I can still get on
and off a horse. 
Ride till the end, girls!  :)

    This lady was still riding at age 101!

    Her advice to follow was, "always saddle your own horse'.

Which is true on so many levels.
