That little technique makes all the difference. Zig vs. Zag, if you will. And it's always the little things that make the most difference.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04893995750373814482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528510907038944744.post-72320360180475465562012-02-22T22:00:52.823-05:002012-02-22T22:00:52.823-05:00You just let me know if you are ever in the Upstat...You just let me know if you are ever in the Upstate NY area Barb, we have four and half horses and 12 acres!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02295872380485056382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528510907038944744.post-31622957277626094902012-02-22T21:13:22.839-05:002012-02-22T21:13:22.839-05:00Oh, yes, Mary, do that!!

It's something I always wished I had learned. However you have inspired me to do something I have not done in years. I grew up on a horse farm but have made excuses to not ride but as soon as it warms up this spring I'm going to saddle up again just like the old days! The only thing that is stopping me from doing something I love is me.
