for the love of horses
I am a horse lover to the core and was lucky enough to actually own two horses, Bentley and Tango, when I was younger. The book, Horses, by Kelley Klein just brought all the memories of horses and riding back. It contains the most stunning horse photographs--perfectly showing their strength as well as their warmth. This is definitely being added to my constantly growing wish list.

My parents owned a home in the dairy farm area in California when I was in college and there was all this land...
well one of the owners would buy wild horses and let them roam on his land. I used to go out and stand very still with carrots on my hands.... well the horses would come up to me and eat the carrots then walk away.
I am sure it wasn't the wisest thing to do but they always walked up to me like it was natural that i would be standing in the middle of no where.
I only rode for a short while when I was younger (boo, allergies and asthma!,) but my mom rode for many years; she too used to own a horse and I know she still misses being around them more often. She always talks of having one (some) again someday.
