'cause we believe in you


Another snowy ride on my Foggy boy this afternoon. I rarely ride him bareback because of his unusually high withers but today's cold temperatures demanded bareback for warmth. He was just adorable and we had a great ride over hill and dale.

Maizie's school got the brilliant idea that they should start back on January 2nd this year. Ick. So she went today, but then Mother Nature's powdery gift that arrived during my Foggy ride has made our Friday morning happier - the school just sent a text - two hour delay tomorrow!!!! Hooray!

Update - Friday morning - 8:23am - No School!!! La, la, la...

    I love snow days! We have had hardly any snow this year. I hope by next winter Luna will be broke enough to ride in the snow. I've always wanted to do that! :)

    Back to school already?? That does not seem right in any way at all. Mother Nature showed them! Lame school administrators!! Bareback is a must these days if you can! Of course I am no good at it, but I know it must be like sitting atop a furnace. Sounds pretty nice on a frigid day. There is something so magical about a snowy ride in winter..which sounds very cliche now that I read it! hah! But is IS magical! there is something about those sparkling snowflakes that changes everything.

      Hi Colleen! Snowflakes would be more magical than this miserable cold!

    I toyed with bareback, but Harley is too unpredictable and wild with this wintry weather!
    Poor Maizie--what a short break! Kids up here got an extra 2 days from the storm.
