Morning Ghoulies.

I am dragging this morning. Went to Asheville to a concert last night. I had a bit of wine and we got home after midnight. Thank goodness today is the day to do the inspection at the State Park. I was hoping to follow it up with a mtb ride but it is nasty and windy and the woods alone is not a good idea.

Have you guys figured out yet that there is rarely a dull moment in my life?

Here's today's story. Yesterday morning my cousin sent me a text and said she need a home. I replied back "for?". Usually it is kittens, or occasionally a puppy or dog. When she replied back she sent me a picture of a horse. Um... ok. She is a 20 year old trained Rocky Mountain Gaited mare. Honestly, that is the breed of horse I have been looking at and they are expensive. She told me she'd call me later with details, so she did. The horse belongs to a woman who owns a horse farm, she boards horses, trains horses, and gives riding lessons. I checked out her website yesterday. This horse isn't ridden much anymore because she has some younger horses she is working with and she needs the space so she is looking for what is called around here a "free lease". We take the horse off of her hands, give it a home, food, vet care, and it is ours as long as we want it. If we ever decide we don't want her anymore we have to give her back to them, we can't sell her.

I'm going with my cousin on Saturday to take a look. I have a ton of questions I want to ask, and I want to see someone ride her. So far things sound good, but I've been fooled before. I do feel better knowing that I can go see her, and this woman's website looks like she does a lot with the horses. I'll let you all know how it goes. If I decide to get her I'll post a picture on FB.

Good morning, Robin. What concert were you at last night?

I heard there were some wicked storms in the south last night. I hope you and Kendra made it through safely.

ceilidh - 2011-11-17 7:51 AM

Cool! I hope you are going to ride her as well. Glad you are checking things out first. We do not need Ann with more horse  injuries!

ironannekidd - 2011-11-17 7:55 AM

I will definitely ride her. My cousin and I are kind of going into this as a joint venture. She has a daughter that is 7 weeks younger than my daughter, and both kiddos love horses. We will ride her for a little while to make sure we trust her before we let any of the kids ride her. I don't want to get hurt again, but if someone is going to get hurt I would prefer it be me over a kid any day of the week.

ceilidh - 2011-11-17 8:08 AM

True, that! However, I vote for noone getting hurt! Just lots of horsing around. (yuck yuck)

I am off to the state park. They are having 45 mph winds up there. Should be fun.

Last day of work before vacation.  Woot!!!

Tomorrow is errand day, running around getting all the last minute stuff done before going away, like a workout, a chiro appt, pedicure.  going to be a tough tough day.

ironannekidd - 2011-11-17 8:59 AM

Sounds like a rough day. If you needs someone to step in and get your pedicure for you, I'm your girl.

I could use company, so come on down.  We even have a spare bedroom in Mexico for anyone who wants to jump on a plane and head to Mexico.

kns57 - 2011-11-17 5:12 PM

Beach to run on.

large swimming pool to swim in.

You can even rent bicycles.

A triathletes dream. 

Only thing stopping you is you. 

iowagander - 2011-11-17 6:54 PM Hey Gang! Just a quick drive by to let you know I got in a decent 5 miles today. I was going for 6 but my IT band started acting froggy so I backed off. It'll be foam roller time tonight! Have a great night everyone
