A random internet search for gaited horses in South Carolina led me to
Richard McDuffie (a founding Director of the McCurdy Plantation Horse
Association) of Aiken, SC and the horses about which he was so passionate,
the McCurdy Plantation Horse. The appointment to meet Mr. McDuffie and
ride a McCurdy opened a new world for me and was the beginning of an
enduring friendship. How fortuitous to be Mr. McDuffie’s friend and riding
buddy and have the opportunity to learn all he had to share about the
McCurdy horses. As his health began to fail, Mr. McDuffie asked that I
assume the responsibility for the South Carolina Chapter of the McCurdy
Plantation Horse Association. In the spring of 2005, I was elected
President of the SC Chapter and am honored to continue to serve in that
capacity.
