While I don't find CL attractive personally, I can see how Erin did. Erin loved horses. We know this. It appears that the Lee's did as well from everything we have seen about them on the WRHR blog and FB page. I think Erin found in CL what she probably hadn't found in JC, a common interest and love for horses. And while his mugshots and younger photos aren't much to look at, I think the pictures of him in his "cowboy" gear (western shirt, jeans, boots, hat) give off a totally different vibe. And certainly a different vibe than JC. Perhaps he is a smooth talker when it comes to horses and that lifestyle...knows the ropes, KWIM.

Every time I look at his picture, I keep asking "why?!?" He's not much to look at IMO (putting it as nicely as I can). He doesn't seem to be smart enough to be a smooth talker. I cannot understand the appeal. I just don't get it. And JC appears to be so cute and caring. Guess it's hard to understand from the outside looking in...
