Give, Take


This is officially my new favorite photo of mine. =) Taken with my new Lensbaby lens, of course. To take it, Toler had to put up with me moving around on his back with a camera (bareback, mind you). It was also a very educational experience: I learned that even though Toler is an unbelievably rational horse, I am *paranoid* about having my precious camera on my person while riding him. Haha, oh well. Toler probably prefers it that way anyway. ;)

Life and love are all about "give and take" maybe that is why you guys have such a great relationship ;)

Oh, I don't know why, but I just felt a bit nostalgic. I haven't been on a horse in years... maybe is because you were riding bareback. I used to take my uncle's horse to the river and bathe him. I would ride bareback (while he was wet) and my mom would freak out, but I wasn't scared. Maybe because I knew Malin would never throw me, or maybe I was young and silly... I do miss either way.

Magaly, That's one of my favorite things about riding. Perfect simile to life. =) Your memories sound like they were a lot of fun--I would love to be able to take Toler to a lake or something and swim with him. I've ridden horses on (ocean) beaches before, and even a little into the waves, but never with my own horse.
