I am Canadian! So is the young lady in this photo. Constable Jennifer Dowden is with the RCMP in Ottawa.
She has just realized her life long dream, and has been accepted to the Musical Ride!
We don’t know Constable Dowden personally,…but we know her cousin! Stephanie Brennan works with us on BT. Stephanie is bursting with pride about this woman she admires. And we admire and thank her for her contributions as well!
DID YOU KNOW? The Musical Ride is performed by 32 riders and horses, plus the member in charge. One of the more familiar formations is the “Dome”, once pictured on the back of our $50.00 bill.




Jennifer is my son’s new friend – he is very proud of her. My wife and I will meet her for the first time later this month – something we very much look forward to. She is one of the few people in this world who has aspired to something special – therefore she must be a special person.
