More adventures in trailering
| August 7, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
I detest adventures in trailering. Trailering should go without a hint of drama, completely routinely, with zero excitement. But of course, you My Dear Reader know better then the think this is a post about trailering without drama, since without drama there is no story and no blog post. MerryLegs loads in a trailer well […] more
Tevis volunteer 2015

Album link to all photos I took at Tevis this year. Pictures are from Robinson flat (mile 36) and Foresthill (mile 68). All pictures taken by the webcast volunteers, including myself, are completely free to take and download with NO restrictions on their use. Enjoy! 🙂 I’ve never officially volunteered for a ride before, but […] more
WHAT?
| July 31, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Of course the week before Tevis WordPress does *something* that reformats my site, which (among other things, but these are just the most annoying) has reformatted my header, defaulted the colors back to the original template green, and added some sort of annoying “share this” to the column on the right hand side that so […] more

Every time that I think about bringing Farley back from Aurora’s and switching her out for MerryLegs I just can’t bring myself to do it yet. Farley is getting such a better work out up there than she ever would down here (hills!) and she’s so much happier being on pasture with friends. Extra time […] more
The way I see it

“But what matters is what’s between the ears!” is a valid statement….but it’s only part of the picture when looking for your next endurance partner. I think of pedigree, conformation, and “what’s between the ears” as three legs of a stool that make up our endurance horses. Nothing can predict the future when it comes to […] more
Why I run (cartoon style)
| July 25, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Ironically as I was working on my last post, this cartoon had been in the works for a while – weeks actually. I run because it makes me happy is still the simple base truth, however last month as the one year anniversary of my sister’s unexpected death passed (and her birthday), and I was […] more
