Hi, My name is Diana Kaiser Berglund, I have been riding almost my whole life. My passion is my horses, I live on a ranch with my best friend and fiancé just north of North Platte, NE. we have a cow/calf operation and have 16 horses, and variety at that, we have a team of Haflingers, two Gypsy Vanners, a mini, a Welsh pony, Paints, and Quarter Horses. I love to trail ride and have always wanted to ride in a a competitive trail ride, but never have, another dream is to learn and ride a dressage horse. Working with cows horseback is so much fun and rewarding also. I love to drive also, I am kind of new to it but have found it is a lot of fun also, but honestly what is not fun when it involves horses. I plan on teaching my Gypsy horses to ride and drive, we drive the Haflingers and the Welsh pony.
I am a member of a all woman mounted drill team, we perform at our local rodeo and for the last 2 years at the Nebraska State Fair, I also belong to 2 other riding clubs, we get to meet a lot of wonderful people and make lots of new friends. I look forward to participating in the 2013 Distance Derby and hope to log a lot of miles on my horses. I will be riding Sam and Lexi most of the time, they are both Quarter Horses. Good luck to all, be safe and God Bless the trails you ride.

ReplyDeleteThis is Team #85 Leather and Lace posting Diana's miles for February 20-23 for her. She left snowy, windy and cold NE to see friends in Wickenburg, AZ. She also had the audacity to post pics on FB of her riding every day in sunny, 75 degree Arizona. It looked like she had fun and she had a different horse to ride each day.
