This theme room is on the main floor of the Stonehouse and is decorated in the horse theme honoring the animal which the cowboy depended and became important part of the American history.

One simply cannot imagine a cowboy or a cowgirl without a horse.

The American cowboy, always aware of the importance of being mounted on the best available horses, displayed a strong preference for Paints. During the last third of the 19th Century, bellowing herds of Longhorn cattle journeyed up the long, dusty trail from Texas to the Missouri Breaks in Montana. Driving these half-wild cattle were suntanned men, often riding Paint Horses.
