Description: Chance is a real Gentleman to ride. I am not afraid to let even novice riders take him for a trail ride with me and Zip. He has a gorgeous rocking horse canter. He and Zip are both horses that I rescued from bad situations. Chance was never allowed out of his stall which was a covered barn and riding arena, and very dark and dingy. He was thrilled to feel the rain fall on him for the first time. They have stalls, but we let him and Zip come and go as they please.

What a great day to just catch up on old friends and pics. I know I didn't make it through everything I wanted to do, but I feel so good for accomplishing a wh… read more

It is around Midnight and I am pretty much exhausted. I am not even sure if I can finish this before midnight. I have seen some mighty great postings tonight. My friends are fantastic, writing great journals, captions, etc, which instill in me the desire to comment. It is really amazing the changes that have taken place since I started Z2ing. I am … read more

As a child, every time I made a wish, it was always for a the same thing. I wished on every Birthday Candle, every Falling Star, every First Star I see tonight. I searched for 4 Leaf Clovers and Wishbones. I hoped that every Christmas, this would be the one...I prayed, but I knew God had much more important things to do than to listen to the selfis… read more
