So I just spent 2 hours on a post that described in excruciating detail how much fun I had at this ride, how good my little pony was, how beautiful the trails were, etc. And then, do you know what I did? I deleted it. “Why”, do you ask? Because it was boring. Very boring. […] more

Just wanted to drop a quick note to let everyone know that Farley finished both days at Wild West and both of us were very strong at the end of each day. It was absolutely amazing. The first day (Wild West Day 2) was fairly easy, but that might have been because I knew the […] more

Just a quick note – I’m crazy busy and don’t want the sweet feeling of success to die before being able to post this. Farley had her check up ultrasound appointment this morning and……(drum roll please)…..she had the cleanest ultrasound on her tendon EVER. Better than a year ago when she was cleared for regular […] more
