Enthusiastic and highly skilled are two different types of riders. <br><br>David and Suzanne owned a few Grand Prix horses (including one named Fleur-de-Lys) but from my direct knowledge their behavior [read: lack of tact] as owners was terrible. <br><br>Short of this being used for commercial purposes like the FEI International Childrens Final (show jumping) in 2004 there has never been an equestrian property sold at or near this price point. <br><br>Not even the grand and magnificent Lionshare Farm in Greenwich, CT owned by Olympic rider Peter Leone even fetched a rate over $40 million. There are wealthy people in the sport, but so many more and cheaper options available for a home and facility.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spectacular Bid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2007 7:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hummingbird Nest Ranch, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have to agree with Spectacular Bid, although the property itself is lovely, the price tag is just absurd, I'm sorry, I don't get this excessive prices, not now, not ever, it's just overwhelming and does not face the reality, we do have in the world a LOT of houses ans estates in excess of 30 million, now, how many of those actually sell? I would say, a couple. Get real about the prices!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Marie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 12th 2007 11:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hummingbird Nest Ranch, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's a lot less tacky than their Bev Hills manse. I couldn't help noticing how green everything was on the ranch and how brown everythign was around it. you're right, I don't even want to know what the water bill would be on a place like this. <br><br>And does anyone actually see any actual horses in any of those stables? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Miss Scarlett]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 13th 2007 10:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hummingbird Nest Ranch, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/12/hummingbird-nest-ranch-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was married at this estate in May and have to say it was breathtaking.
