It's cloudy and windy, again. Cliff and I did our shopping this morning, and had some wonderful tenderloin sandwiches afterward (from our home-butchered pork). After he went to work, I stepped outside and decided it was not too cold for a horseback ride. By george, I paid $75 to have Blue shod, and I'm doggone sure gonna get my money's worth! Besides, every time I stepped outside the door, Blue whinnied at me... a sure sign he wanted to go someplace.
I learned long ago that if you wait for perfect conditions to take a walk or ride a horse, you won't go far. So Blue and I faced the wind and headed away. It was great! How quickly I forget the pleasure of enjoying this great land in the company of the best horse I've ever known.

I sure did enjoy the ride with you. Thanks for the pics.
This wind is driving me crazy! Blue must not hear buggeers in the wind. Precious does.
Oh, I think this would have been fun. I love those pics with Blue's head and ears in them, you know you have taken the pic on top of the horse!!!! It's cute.
I love horses. I love their fierce yet gentle souls. And oh, how I miss the countryside. Thanks for your lovely photojournal.
Now I feel like "horseing around!!" rich
