Keeping track of my sunglasses has always been a problem. While visiting the stable, I put my sunglasses on the tonneau cover on the back of my pick up truck and forgot about them. When I got home, I realized that my favorite pair of sunglasses fell off the truck sometime during my journey. Oh well another pair of glasses lost.
Next time I went to the stable, Lora was talking about the great pair of sunglasses she found in the road leading to the stable.
"Are they large framed, tortoise shell with a gold KC on the side of the frame?," I inquired.
"Yes," said Lora "and they are in great shape for being found alongside the road."
"I think they might be mine. Could I take a look?
"No, because I wore them trail riding in Alpine Forest. When I asked my mare to pick up a canter, the glasses flew off into the bushes."
Oh well....I replaced the sunglasses with another style.
A month later I was playing cards with some friends. The conversation turned toward trail riding. Bonnie mentioned the great pair of sun glasses she found in a bush in Alpine Forest.
"Are they large framed, tortoise shell with a gold KC on the side of the frame?," I inquired.
"Yes," said Bonnie "and they are in great shape for being found in a bush."
"I think were once mine. Could I take a look?
They were my former sunglasses!!!! I offered to trade Bonnie for my new pair which she liked better than the pair she found in the bushes anyway.
That is how I got my favorite pair of sunglasses back. And I still have them.
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.
