ABOUT US |
|
Kelly and Chance |
|
Hello, my name
is Kelly Edmondson. My husband, Chance, and I
have been married for 23 years and have two
wonderful kids, Ashley 22 and Chris 19.
We are the owners
of Walk N Express, a small Tennessee Walking
Horse breeding facility located in Wildomar,
Ca.
It is 1¼ acres of flat
and mountainous land,
located SE of Los Angeles. There are a lot of streets so, fortunately for us,
our horses are
used to all kinds of noises. Cars, dogs barking, trees blowing,
bicycles, trash cans and lots of distractions.
Being
in the area where we live, we are able to drive
45 min any direction and we can ride at the
beach or at a nice trail riding area. Some of it
is flat
and some with hills. A mile and a half down the road
we can trailer to Santa Rosa Plateau and ride
for hours. |
|
Here in Wildomar approximately 30% of
the community is horse property, and the
majority are trail riders. We have a lot of
Quarter Horse people around this area so they
like to do sorting, cutting, reining, team penning, showing etc.
A group of girls will
get together once or twice a week and we will go for a
ride. Otherwise I ride by myself or with my
husband.

I have loved horses from the time I was very
young. My grandmother knew how much I loved
horses. My grandmother and grandfather
bought some land in Nuevo Ca and they bought
me my first horse when I was 16 yrs old. Her
name was Dolly, she was a Morgan…Well, lets
just say I was hooked. I was ecstatic
when introduced to the Tennessee Walker.
Calm, willing and docile but with some get
up and go.
Our son,
Chris, who is a big
help around the barns.=> |

Kinda of a funny
story how I got introduced to the Walker. Before
that, I was one of the Quarter Horse people. My
friends and I would go to Taco Tuesday through
the riverbed to an eating place and they always
rode gaited horses, so I would always have to
borrow a horse to go. Well, they say once you
ride a Walker you are hooked.
|

I decided I needed my own Tennessee Walker
for Taco Tuesday night, and that is how I
got my first Tennessee Walking Horse,
Cowboy - a 15.3 hand black tobiano.
Loved him. I rode him everywhere. He went to
a good home in Hawaii. So a big THANK YOU to
Eileen, Julie and Deanna for helping me find
the wonderful Tennessee Walkers. |

|
I want to give a BIG,
HUGE THANK YOU to my husband Chance who helps me
around the yard and with my horses.

Chance begins the imprinting process
on newborn foal, Duke. |
|
|
Also my son, Chris who cleans up after them every
morning and night. That is my staff.
I have always thought
horses are the most beautiful animals to watch.
When you see them running free with their manes
and tails flying in the wind and they are
jumping and playing. To see the foals at their
mothers side. There is nothing more beautiful to
watch.

Our daughter Ashley missed the birth
because of work,
but came to see Duke right after he was born.
|
I thought owning horses
was a dream that could never be reached. WOW,
how amazing.... I get to live my dream everyday.
I am so thankful to my husband Chance for making
my dream come true.
