…to the anonymous person who decided that since they were leaving the parking lot early, they would put their parking pass in the mouth of the dispenser. It made me day that I didn’t have to pay $6 for parking – especially as I was feeling extremely sorry for myself (poor me….) for no good […] more
OT: Book Review
| April 20, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Here’s the first of my “Blogging for Books” review. I’ll do horsey ones as I can, but as I’m an advid reader that takes what I can get, there’s no promises. I didn’t have a lot of selection for my first book, so it’s decidely non-horse and non-endurance. Ooops. And after me blasting this book […] more

I’m finally starting to feel human again! I *think* this is the LAST day of the lingering cold – well over a week since it started. Of course, had I realized I was SICK and not tried to just push through it, I probably could have cut my recovery time in half. I’m sure there […] more

I had a fabulous backpacking trip and can recommend Pt. Reyes National Seashore without reservation. It’s extremely horse friendly (hitching posts all over) and the trails are well maintained. I’m not sure what other accommodations are available beyond fabulous trails for the equestrian, but for the backpackers, there are some very neat hike in campsites, […] more
