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.

Performing Games on your Icelandic horse
Watching the start of this video, you may wonder why the teen Lizzy is continually jumping on her Icelandic Bjally from different angles---they are preparing for mounted horse game shown later in the video. Lizzy and Bjally are the reserve champions in Luxemburg. Everybody seems to be having such fun. And the music is so catchy, the tune has been going through my head all day.
