LOL I may or may not have taken a screenshot or two... (give or take)... from my iphone of her AND stingray for WCW on instagram... which I don't normally participate in. I'm pretty sure that puts me at creeper status. |

I'm stalker status because I read her "In Their Own Words" on the WPRA site before I watched this video and Sherry mentions that she drinks Starbucks at the beginning of her day.... and she was using a Starbucks cup for the automatic waterers in this video! |

You are too funny! She was at a local jackpot this summer that I was at, with Stingray tied to the trailer...pretty sure EVERY one of us snuck a picture in!! :) We were all a bit star-struck by them being at our $35 dollar race! |

       Location: Phoenix | I love how she talked about her bond with her horse and how she takes care of her to the best of her abilities....I feel the exact same way about my horse. And putting down shavings for her, even if it's a $10/bag for 1 hour, it's worth it.
also liked what she talked about near the beginning, her mental attitude and enjoying it because she CHOSE to do this. Nobody is making her do it so she best have a good attitude about it. That really struck a chord with me. |

i think my favorite part of that was the 'you only get so many runs on each horse'
i'll be cheering the hardest for her & stingray! |

What do these additives do?!?!
I love how she says each run is a blessing and you only get so many and make them count. I try and remember this before every run.
Shes a great woman and someone I can easily look up to! |

   Location: PA | I'm sure we were all taking notes of everything she was doing in this, I know I was . I loved thevideo, you can just tell how real she was being in it and how unrehearsed it was. Really shows a nice perspective on her life.
I watched this right when it came out, when it had 2 veiws (I'm suscribed to CE so it came up in my feed on youtube) and it is alredy at 12,800 veiws which is really great for Sherry, she is getting tons of good publicity.  |

I think I reached stalker status a long time ago haha.
All joking aside, she really is a great person and a wonderful example of horsemanship and sportsmanship. I got misty eyed more than once watching this. She is one classy lady and an amazing example of what our sport strives for.  |

| I would like to add, this was a wonderful video!!!!!!!!! Really awesome. Now, talking about class, did anyone see where Fallon Taylor wrote that she keeps a stripper pole in her trailer for exercise?
I hope this sport stays more towards Sherry's type and LESS towards the un-classy ones- I think Fallon needs to go on that new rodeo show everyone has been talking about. |

   Location: Arizona | Sherry stopped by Buckeye and ran in our Thanksgiving race on Friday. She had George, Stingray and two other young ones with her. Stingray and George took first and second that day and she placed 4th I think on her young one. It's neat to see her and Stingray right before Vegas...I love Stingray...such a gritty tough mare!! |

She was multi tasking. It showed her hanging hay bags and just getting ready to hit the road I think. |
