A weekend of Cowgirl dreams.

It’s a strange thing..

I’m not a huge horse-rider.

Not a ranch hound.

Not even really that interested in donning chaps….

*

YET…

*

I am obsessed with this WILD HORSE WOMAN WITH HAIR FLAILING BEHIND HER AS SHE FLIES HORSEBACK ACROSS A FIELD thing.

*

Anyone with me?

*

I guess it’s what this little scene represents and also that before my very eyes, my kidlet #2 is obsessed with everything horse and is well on her way to being this woman (I couldn’t be more proud!).

*

Horses are mysterious to me…rode ‘em at summer camp in the Cascade mtns. when I was a kid, but grew up in the city, so the rest of my year was horse-free.  They are majestic and beautiful and WILD.

*

I like that wild part…

*

always have…I want to photograph them something awful right now…I have a lead on a group owned by a woman out here who I think would allow me some pasture time. SOON! Gotta do it soon.

My pal Tiffany, in her gracious “sharing all with everyone” weekend, let Rach ride her pony and Katie tag along with her daughter (K is a bit scared of horses…but eventually did ride alone). Rach didn’t want to get off the horse—she was out their with Tiffany’s daughter for almost 2 1/2 t0 3 hours….

*

…having the time of her life.

*

Being a wild horse woman.

Jumping for the first time.

Taking it all in, Cowgirl friend and all….

*

it was a dream come true for her and she cried on the way home saying that she missed her pony friend.

    Horses are wonderful and powerful animals. I was horse crazy at an early age too. My interests changed to dogs ….then to “boys”….and never ventured back to horses. I used to ride horses w/ friends [ who owned them] and let my brother tag along. He became bit by the horse bug….and as an adult owns two beautiful horses and keeps them at a lovely stables in Ridgefield.

    Awesome pics. I love the first one especially with the braided mane.
