lessons in riding: a tribute to a friend



Our good friend and massage therapist said goodbye to a grand old mare yesterday. Go well, Polly!!  Your herd will miss you but we know you're running fast and free.

That song transported me back in time! Go well Polly indeed.

Me too, Maire - I cried this morning when I heard but cried harder after I listened to this song. I had never listened to it with the thought of a horse moving on in my mind. Takes on a new and sad and poignant meaning now.

Love Neil Young. Wonderful song.

So sad when we say goodbye to one of our family. Long may you run Polly.

Thanks, Arlene. So hard to think about but at the same time a part of life we have to face as women who love and live with horses.
