Amusing thoughts….

It’s kind of funny the combinations of reactions and lack thereof amongst the various groups of people I know and have known over the years to the news of my engagement.

Lots of congrats from unlikely places, less than what I thought from some liekly ones, and a bit of shock and amazement from those who know me best.

I love being unpredictable.

Can I go play with my Horses now?

Thanks,

Mark

What an amazing thing….

Well, here’s a couple posts I never thought I’d be making….

I’m engaged! Like, the going-to-get-married engaged engaged.

For real.

Oh, and I actually have a horse to ride.

For real.

First, a picture of my sweety, Kirsten, and her engagement ring, an 18 month old Friesian filly known as Tessie (Testimony) on the right (Tessie’s momma is on the left):

Then a picture of me and my new DM…. a 17-hand Belgian draft horse (for non-horsey folks, 17 hands means FOOKIN HUGE) by the name of Dolly Madison. And boy is she huge… if you fall off, you can bounce 3 times and still be on her back:

Amazing, wot?

Be well, all…
