| March 31, 2009 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Well, I am absolutely swamped at work, so I haven’t had a chance to get any of the pictures downloaded and the posts written. It figures that the week I have lots of exciting news, I don’t have time to write it up. Just a quick up date on the renegades – I tried them […] more

This post is an incredibly wordy way to say I ordered a pair of renegades. In my previous post, there’s a picture of the hoof stand my very talented younger brother welded for me on Saturday.
