I must preserve as well as carry on the legacy of my family. I am the fifth generation, going back to my great great grandfather Bo, Jim and Susan's first labrador at RustRidge Ranch. I was born here on May 13 of this year. I have three brothers and three sisters. They have all moved to other families. I got to stay on the ranch with my mom and dad.<br />

</tbody></table>
Rusty was born at RustRidge in the spring of 1986. The daughter of Maybelle's Hope and Pencil Point, she injured herself as a filly and developed a knot in her neck which caused her to hold her head at a tilt. So they thought she could not be a runner. In 1989 Jim Fresquez came to RustRidge Ranch by the invitation of Lucille Meyer, Susan's mother. He was asked to evaluate her three year old prospects so after he lunched by the pool with Lucille, her brother Stan and his wife Tomi, Jim went over to his sporty Camero, reached into his back seat and pulled out his saddle, to the surprise of everyone. "Show me your horses" he said, so Stan walked Jim up to the paddocks and Jim prepared to evaluate Lucille's fillies by test riding them.<br />
<br />
After giving each filly a spin, Jim came back and informed Lucille that RustRidge Sippling and Kool and Lovly "Kool" were her best prospects. A few weeks went by, then Jim was asked to train those two and a few others. Who knew it would be the beginning of long line of RustRidge racehorses and an amazing journey for Jim and Susan.<br />
<br />
Rusty and Kool proved to be Lucille's best racehorses. Both were difficult to handle and required special treatment. Rusty won her first race, a practice race, and had a unique style of running with her head facing sideways due to her neck injury. Unfortunately, in her very first race, as she was heading to the lead, another horse clipped her and injured her front leg. The jockey on that horse was disqualified from the race but unfortunately the injury ended her career. Kool went on to win her first race that summer.<br />

Rusty was retired to RustRidge Ranch and began her breeding career. She had eight live births:<br />

RustRidge Range, RustRidge Flavor, Rustridge Brix, RustRidge Zin, RustRidge Bo, Stacy's Ridge and RustRidge Reserve. She also had a foal that lived several days and a foal that was stillborn. Each of six colts were winners on the track and her filly became a broodmare (mother to Devine Thief).<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Charlie was born in 2000 to Tosca and Buster. His father and his grandfather Bo raised him during his first few years. Unfortunately Bo and Buster passed away in 2002 and 2003. Charlie had big shoes to fill. Perhaps he shouldered too much responsibility and that is why he took frequent breaks from the ranch.<br />
He was a very loving dog that enjoyed being with our guests and even spending the night with them. Charlie began his life of wandering during a rain storm one winter about 7 or 8 years ago. He was scared by the thunder and lightning and ran up Chiles Valley Road and ended up at a neighbor's home about three miles away. The family fell in love with Charlie and soon he was sleeping on their bed. They didn't know where he came from, but they eventually found out and brought him back. A few days later he returned to their home.<br />
Over time he got to know all of our neighbors in Chiles Valley as well as all of the irrigation ponds and other watering holes. He loved Rustridge but he needed more room to roam. Neighbors would call and let us know he was visiting them and we would go pick him up. He enjoyed hanging out at their homes and visiting with them and their pets. Other times neighbors would see him running down the road and would bring him home.<br />
Four years ago he wandered down the road and got picked up by a stranger. We finally got him back after 10 days of agony. He spent those ten days on Prichard Hill with a lovely view of Lake Hennessey.<br />
He wore a collar with a name tag for years after that. The last time he wandered, (last winter) he ended up at the animal shelter (we had taken off his collar, because we thought his roaming days were over). After that he never wandered farther than the next ranch. Charlie was put to rest yesterday evening. He lived a wonderful and full life and enjoyed his final harvest with us. Charlie leaves behind Holly and nine children: Rusty, Ridge, Bishop, Bella, Annie, Scout, Ambur, Gracie and Cali.</td></tr>

I used to live in Pope Valley at a very quiet house tucked in the hills. The guy who lived there was moving and one day Jim and Catherine came by to visit him. They saw me hanging out and asked if I would be staying or going. When they heard that I was not going, they decided I needed to move to RustRidge Ranch. I ended up in a totally different world. There are 13 other cats here and nobody put out the welcome mat for me. I had to fight for everything I have. Luckily, I got tough in Pope Valley and was able fend for myself.<br />
