Hey Patrick,
Just wanted to take a minute (if you ever get a minute to sit down) to say how pleased I am with Bella's progress. When I saw her loping around that field yesterday, it made the hair on my arms stand up.... I am sure that you hear it from every horse owner that brings you their horse, but for what it's worth Thank-You for giving Bella the tools for a great start. I went back and forth so many times, and thought that it seemed like a lot of money (sorry not your fault!!!), but seeing her yesterday made it all worth while.... I don't have a pot of gold so I had to save, save, save and work some over time to pay for it, but I have realized it will be so worth it. (besides people that love horses never have money!!!) The good Lord has truly blessed you with a gift and the horse world will thank you for it. I pray that you and Nicole get back 10 times what you have done for horses..... My daughter, kids say the funniest things, she said 'that's really cool mom that you have a famous guy training your horse!!!!' So just wanted to make sure I sent you a note to say thank you....

Hi Mr. King,
Thank you again for working with Hillary and Hunny on Sunday...I wanted to let you in on the news: They are a fairly new team...Hunny has only been with us a year---most of which was snowy and cold and not very good "play time" weather. Anyway, Hillary was having a tough time getting Hunny to canter...even a little bit.  Hillary's a bit timid/cautious and Hunny can be bossy. Sunday after you left they went over to an empty field and cantered!! and cantered. and cantered. and cantered some more!! By the time I "found" them, Hillary was grinning ear-to-ear and Hunny was wondering what had happened to the old Hillary!  You accomplished more in 3 short hours than her riding teacher did all last summer & fall!   Your clinic gave her a ton of confidence!       THANK YOU!! 
 
Hope to see you again soon, (And Nicole too!)
 
P.S.--now if we can find a way to lengthen Hillary's legs so she can mount by herself!  ha-ha!

You are an inspiration....
Hi Patrick! I just wanted to let you know I thought you were absolutely amazing at the Black Cat Farm clinic in Hanover (Massachusetts) this past weekend! You have inspired me so much! You did a great job with my sisters pony....."Fonteyn".....and I really enjoyed watching you bareback with just a small rope around the neck of the Friesian on Sunday! I hope you and Nicole can come back again.....Erin
