As a little girl, I always wanted a pony for Christmas. Santa never brought me a pony. So in my late 40s, I started taking horseback riding lessons. When I turned 50, I got my first horse, an Icelandic named Blessi (Veigar frá Búðardal). Little did I know how much fun life with an Icelandic was going to be. Blessi has a unique perspective on life. I hope you enjoy reading about it as much as I enjoy Blessi. And you will probably read about my cats from time to time.

Riding Icelandic Horses Through Paris

Setting the video to the music of "Dirty Paws" by the Icelandic group of Monsters and Men is brilliant. All of the horses, regardless of breed, did really well in this procession.
