What beat do you march to?

I usually listen to podcasts while I drive, ride and do my more boring activities. However, I decided to put my ipod on shuffle and listen to my music while I rode on the trail the other day. The music is an eclectic collection of music, mostly random music I don’t have hard copies of, […] more
EEK!

A special warning to my blog reader and friend Funder: this post is going to freak you out.

Aren’t all confessions guilty? I will ponder that at a later time. I never ever groom my horse. I make sure the tack areas aren’t grungy, scrub with my fingers a bit on any accumulated grime on her back, and do a quick feel in the girth area. Sometimes I pick up her feet. That’s […] more

Diseases that used to really concern me as a private owner, aren’t as big a deal know because I either understand the etiology of the disease or know that they can be managed fairly successfully, or compared to the million other things that can go wrong, a particular, highly publicized disease just […] more
Know thyself

Today I finally checked an item off my todo list that has been postponed and postponed and postponed yet again for at least a month. Wash my sleeping bag. Let me put it a different way.
