Rocky Mountain Gelding for Sale in Hitchcock, TX
Socks is broke, broke, broke, I have kids as young as 10 riding him, if they can ride they can ride him. He stands for ferrier, saddleing, and mounting. He has been on many trail rides, beach rides and rides down the street or to the parks. I even used him for barrels and poles for fun. Will consider trade for a small pony between 13 and 14 hands.

About Hitchcock, TX
Hitchcock was created as a station of the railroad between Galveston and Houston in 1873 and around the turn of the 20th century became a vegetable shipping center. The settlement's economy crashed in the 1930s after insect plagues in the surrounding areas, and the area stayed impoverished until the establishment of the Camp Wallace anti-aircraft training base and the Hitchcock Naval Air Station at the beginning of World War II. After the end of the war, the bases were used as discharge centers, and some former soldiers settled in the area. Hitchcock was established in 1960 as the area's population boomed, topping out at nearly 7,000 by the end of the 1960s. Today, the town serves as a suburb of Galveston and houses workers from the Johnson Space Center.
