I don't know if I have brushed more horses in my barn or in my dreams. I can spend hours just grooming a horse.

Some days are just a little to get started then others, worse yet is when those days fall on a Monday.

I have spent the entire weekend with promoting the Horse lovers Birthday bash on Knot-A-Tail web site. The new site is a year old this month and they are having a month long celebration.
