I feel like that right now, in a way. My riding keeps getting put off.<br /><br />But after reading of your lovely ride, with Val enjoying himself and the true balance you both had; I'm grateful too. I am inspired by you and will keep feeling exactly what what you are doing...till one day, I'll be riding out-your description on my own horse.<br /><br />All that said, I'm truly loving my bareback saddle experience. It takes me back to childhood...though I'm not on the bare horse( I wouldn't want to be !) I feel like I am. <br />A gift these equine creatures are...they allow US TO JOIN THEM.<br /><br />YOU COOK YOU'RE LITTLE HEART OUT FOR THANKSGIVING!!! <br />Love and friendship to you,<br />XO<br />Kacallhorsestuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301081722884351021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005422562901601859.post-76193951113873325512011-11-23T20:24:21.827-05:002011-11-23T20:24:21.827-05:00Absolutely love the photo of your hand and Val'...Absolutely love the photo of your hand and Val's nose.
