Happy partners day

Happy partners day Farley! I’m sorry I won’t be out today to take our annual selfie since I am flat on my back on the couch recovering from the lumbar puncture and dictating this into an iPad. But we did get to go riding last night and it was lovely at least for me. I’m […] more

| November 21, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Equine Endurance, Most Popular |
In the Oct Link Luv post I shared some data that Mike Maul posted on the AERC facebook page….now, instead of relying on your *squirrel-shiny-object-syndrome brains to go click on that link and then come back in some sort of orderly and reliable fashion (this is the modern age after all), I’ll just **reiterate everything here. *Oh, […] more

I’m behind on my blog reading because a bunch of e-library books that I requested all came through at the same time and I’m desperately trying to read them before they expire, but I still managed to read enough online content to put together a decent I-should-be-working-but-instead-let’s-waste-time-on-the-internet distraction.
