How fortunate you are to have your very own horse! I miss riding like MAD. However, since I don't get to ride anymore and can't afford lessons, I volunteer at a local horse rescue. The conditions they come from & their stories are just horrid. But we have a crew of volunteers that donate their time and sometimes money too to nurse them back to health. Once they get to us they are loved on and spoiled like they should have been. Needless to say, with my own past, I can really relate to these poor creatures. You wouldn't believe the things they've been through but we get them back to their beautiful selves again. I really love animals and horses. They're such beautiful, mystical creatures.

Happy belated b-day Izzy!
