old partner


horse riding is so glorious!
 my horse partners' have always
reminded me of my responsibility
to share my plan for
the ride at that moment.
Horses need a plan!


 no saddle horn on this English saddle so
my intention to the horse is
to enjoy and stretch and glide
and just ride, does not have to be fast
i do love a good trott always though!



i just really enjoyed my afternoon with my old friend
Rocky. We sure have helped each other with some grieving for our loved one, Graham, over the years, together.
I make a point of riding this horse so I can
get back to that intention and partnership and the
history behind our rides



"The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears"
