"Riddle Farms" frames!

aera Aug 02, 2007 11:37 AM

I have built seven of these frames from the remaining tongue and groove slats that lined the walls of the jockey quarters at the late great riddle farm on the eastern shore of Maryland. This was the farm that raised and trained "Man O' War" and we all knew who he was. Was just wondering what the horse enthusiasts of this forum thought of my project.
Thanks,Matt
