I have two myself, and usually manage to slip a horse into my stories. Although I live in the UK I ride Western,as it is such a relaxed (anbd comfortable) way of going. The bay horse you're riding reminds me of my first horse Flikka, who went over the Rainbow Bridge a few years ago, aged 35!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing.Hywela Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789711554354184386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013237354844687618.post-50656444951905272472010-09-27T19:56:27.957-07:002010-09-27T19:56:27.957-07:00Nancy it was wonderful to get to know you better! ...Nancy it was wonderful to get to know you better! This last June I had the opportunity to visit a friend in Wyoming who has 8 horses, and though it has been 25 some years since I've been on a horse, she let me ride 2 of the horses. It was fabulous, and I got to brush them and everything! Horses are such majestic creatures, and these two were so sweet and gentle. I look forward to reading your stories!

As I read your quote of "without a horse a man is just a man..." and it made me think of something John Wayne would have said in one of his western movies.

I know who to touch base with if I have a question. *kidding*--I think.<br />Your novel sounds lovely, and I do like fantasy.
