Hi,
Just joined the Barnmice community and thought I say a short hello.
I grew up in southern Alberta and we always had horses around to ride even though we lived in a small town. My father was always taking us and the horses to the mountains either for some hunting or just a weekend of riding.
I have fond memories of spending summers on my eldest sisters ranch in Montana. Mostly doing chores but it was an excellent growing experience.
I find myself in living in Toronto now and most of the riding I do is on the street car, but my love a trusty steed has not diminished in the least.
David.....
