Patches is a beautiful horse. Looks like a lot of fun. One day before I get too old, I'd like to get into jumping. The only thing is, I don't know if my Arab can do it and I can't afford another horse. I've got to get myself into shape first, though. It'll be like starting all over but it's a dream I have. Glad you had so much fun. My first horse was an old buckskin. I'll have to see if I can find a pic of him.
