Travels with Deb
I had promised myself I wouldn’t get up on another horse – ever – as past horseback riding experiences have shown me that horses and I don’t get along. Typically, I would be told I would be riding a gentle mare only to have that “gentle” mare persistently nip at another horse, constantly munch on the grassy smorgasbord, balk at crossing a shallow stream, then turn around and head the other way, and my favorite, unexpectedly take off at a speedy trot, leaving the rest of the group (and almost me, too!) in the dust.
