Richard and Julie Phipps came over from England
to ride horses in Calhoun Falls.
After looking around a while for a riding stable that could supply what
they were looking for, they found one. Out of all the stables listed they found in January our web site Tri S Ranch
. After a few e-mails between us, a decision was made and plans put together. Richard and Julie left England and came to the
U.S.A. Richard and Julie have lived part of their dream now. They have rode horses "western style" with all the hoop
la. They have now rode the big loop on our trails here in Calhoun Falls. Richard and Julie handled
all terrains like a pro. They even tried the 30 foot deep gully slid on one side and 60 foot up on the other. Before
Richard and I went through (the gully slid) I did hear Julie say, "you must be joking" but she pushed her horse on and went
over the edge. Julie and Richard handled both sides with no problem at all. Tri S Ranch looks forward to Richard and
Julie's next trip back to us from England, when they will ride the overnight Huge Loop...42 miles.
Phase1 Tri S Ranch new horse stables will be in the lower left corner in red hwy. 72
& 81, with horse trails behind us in this picture. A rocks throw from the new projects main gate.
Phase 2 This area will be just across the road to our right where another 3000 homes will be built.
