Hi All,
Today we went on our second ride -- it was wonderful, peaceful, and quiet. What a marvelous thing.
As some might know, Hennessey (my horse) was in St. Charles for training with the Amish. She came home Saturday, and my vow is to take her out every morning for a six mile run on the road. She was good yesterday, our first day out, but today she was fantastic.
I really love traveling this way. It brings the world down to a trot, and the good Lord knows we all need that. Literally speaking, time stands still. I can catch my breath and just enjoy the morning.
I think I will look for a sleigh in winter. It is kind of the "Courier and Ives" thing.
Well, it is just another day at The Abbey.
Hope yours is as peaceful ~ Ruth
