Starting July 5, 2010, we are putting the most recent ones first.
Dan and Beth from Maryland, with Jonesy
on a half day ride. Such a peaceful and beautiful morning!     
Amy, Bob, and Andrew had a great all day ride with
Jonesy, in a gorgeous corner of "my office". Great day and a lot of fun! See video HERE and HERE
  
Dan and Ashley from Washington State, Sept 6 with
Jonesy. Cold morning, frost, climbed a mountain for some great views! Unfortunately Jonesy forgot his camera,
so am waiting for Ashley to send me some pics. Had a great ride!
Jeff, August 31 half day ride with Jonesy.
Cold morning. We got snowed on. That's silly! But had a very enjoyable morning. Saw a very fresh bear
track.
    
Leo, Min, and Damon, August 28, 2010 We went
riding in the rain, had to wait in the truck for a while for a thunderstorm to pass, and had to get under the trees several
times to wait out a rain or hail storm. But it was so pretty and fresh after the rain, and even got too warm when the
sun came out. Six year old Damon did great!! See video HERE and HERE for Damon trotting and having fun, and HERE to see them riding away, my horse following them. HERE is a short video of them riding across a sagebrush meadow. To view all the pics of the
ride in full size, click HERE to find them on Dropbox, then click on 28AugLeoMinDamon. Click HERE to get your own Dropbox, 2 gigs free file sharing.
        
Philadelphia gang August 18; Margot, Will, Scott, Laura and Renetta, Crosby, Josh had a great ride
with Jonesy. These kids and moms were very inexperienced with horses but were game for anything. No whiners in
the bunch. Little Laura had a great time, even when we trotted--"It's bouncy!" I, Jonesy, had a
really fun time with them! And Maggie did too. To view original size pics of Wydaho rides click HERE for the online DropBox folder. To get DropBox free, so you can share your large files and photos with others, either

Chris and Sydney Snyder, and Jim,
Becky, Lauren, and Allen Takayesu had a fun half-day ride with Jonesy up North Indian Creek on August 13, 2010.
We started in Idaho, crossed the line, then most of the ride was in Wyoming. Had a fun ride; Chris' horse, Trey,
got stung by a hornet (we think) and had a seriously itchy face, scratching it in the bushes and on us. We did several
slow gallops and had a great time doing it! Back near the truck Allen broke RULE #1 by falling off. It wasn't
his fault, as the saddle tipped sideways when Snickers jumped a log. Fortunately he landed in some soft dirt.
A really fun ride. Click HERE to see the video. To view original size pics of Wydaho rides click HERE for the online DropBox folder. To get DropBox free, so you can share your large files and photos with others, either

Lee Family, from Connecticut; Stan, Debbie, Adam, Steven, Heidi. Had a great ride, some of the most
beautiful scenery. "Just incredible". Got rained on for just a few minutes. 10 year old Heidi
galloped on a horse for the first time. Click HERE for video.     
Mark, Dee, and Shannon from Atlanta area, August 10. Had an enjoyable easy all day ride, burgers on
the trail. Beautiful spot to eat lunch. Great day!       
Greeve and Laura, from Chicago area, went on a Supreme Adventure Ride on August 9. Laura is experienced
with horses, Greeve was somewhat reluctant at first, because he was apprehensive, but had a great time and became a better
than average rider on this ride. He qualified in one respect, he had a horse wreck. His horse stumbled and lurched
and he was afraid it would roll off the steep trail, so he bailed out and went off on the downhill side and was running down
the steep hill trying to catch his balance, in his stocking feet! His shoes were both still in the stirrups! All
came out well and he laughed at the experience. It rained on us several times on the ride, and was really beautiful
some of the time, a minor annoyance some of the time. We sat under trees to wait out the thunderstorms. Incredible ride.
quotes: "Definitely on a Bucket List". "The most incredible day of my life." "A
truly healing experience." "This actually brings tears to my eyes it is so beautiful." A few selected
pics here, but you can see all of them and watch the videos on Jonesy's DropBox online. Click HERE to join DropBox (free) and you can watch the videos and see all the pics or even save them to your computer.       
Robin and her son, Kyle, and Alexis from Florida with Jonesy on 29 July 2010. Had a beautiful ride
and did some wandering around in the woods off the trail. Made it more fun. We saw a small bull moose and a deer
at close range.
         
The Glover Family; Mark, Ann, Dave, Elenore, Taylor, McKenzie, Sidney, July 21. Had such a good time with
a ride in the rain and lunch cooked on the trail. Click HERE for video.     
Tim, Deonna, and Heath Hoffman, from Indiana, on an all day ride with Jonesy, up South Fork of Indian Creek.
Had a great ride, Deonna learned to gallop without falling off, except we then had to spend an hour looking for her camera
which bounced out of her pocket. Beautiful day! Click HERE to see video.
        
Steve, Michelle, Becky, and Jackie Chance, from Virginia (DC suburb), July 12, 2010; Had a beautiful

Richard Shapiro and his daughter Sarah, July 7, 2010 had the most incredible adventure of their lives.
Tremendous Supreme Adventure Ride. Something they will never forget. We not only climbed an incredible mountain
with 3,000 foot canyons on each side, but we had to flounder through snowdrifts, had to pick our way over shale slides, and
rode over 20 miles. It was a 12 hour day, with about 9 1/2 hours in the saddle. Incredible adventure! Contact
them at ladybug@ cjnetworks.com (I put an extra space after the @ sign. remove it to email them) Guided by Jonesy and Craig. Click HERE for video.         
Lydia, Alexandra, and Leah Cox from Delaware. Had a great ride, incredible wildflowers, great scenery.
Saw a buck mule deer and a bull elk. "This was the greatest way to spend the last day of our vacation!"
Click HERE for video of ride (I said "snowy" meadow, meant to say "flowery"). And HERE for 'nother vid.
    
Evers family--Todd, Shelly, Allison, Carolyn, Matt-- from Wisconsin, and Ayers kids--Kalen, Ciana, Amaya--
from Utah. Took an afternoon ride with Jonesy and Rae up beautiful North Indian Creek. Fun ride, good horses,
did some galloping, crossed the creek twice. Click HERE to see video of creek crossing.
         
Townsend family had a good ride, but in the rain. We were plenty wet and cold at the end of it.
"We could sit around the motel and complain about the rain, or just go riding in it"
