I was going through a bunch of pictures tonight and found one of me riding :) This is when I first got Lady and finally had her sound enough to ride. It's winter, you can see the snow on the mountains and you can probably tell by my expression I wasn't thrilled to see a camera show up.

Good picture! What are the houses way off behind you? Neighbors that you are friends with?

I gotta tell ya, duchess, I love your landscape pictures. So much exciting history where you are. Can't you just see the Donner party coming across, in their covered wagons pulled by oxen, everytime you look out at that lonely landscape? The hardship they endured is unfathomable. I know you're probably used to it but the pictures effect me in a weird way. I love mid to late 1800's history, I have lots of books about it but by golly, you're living right where some of the stuff I read about happened!

Do ya'll ever hunt for goodies with metal detectors? Any historical markers nearby?

Great picture Duchess! I'm glad we finally got to see you riding.

Thanks for the pic Duchess! I never like the front end of the camera either :~)

Good morning everyone!

That you Duchess? I don't think I've seen a pic before. I like that horse, esp her head. You still have her?
