Meaghan making a delious dinner!Deceivingly friendly picture.



This same horse gave me a startling welcome when Meaghan was giving me a tour of her cabin and the barn. We opened up the gate and another horse nipped at the black horse, which caused him to do an about face and kick his hind leg straight back in a line drive to my thigh/buttocks area. My body went into shock but after the adrenalin wore off, I realized my leg was still intact and nothing was broken. I walked away with a deep tissue bruise...unbelievably lucky!



I made peace with the horse.A glass of wine and the hot tub you can see in the bottom left of the photo worked well to ease the injuryChristmas in the mountains...love it! Kristin moved to Colorado! Yay! The Rubias together again!



Enjoying my home town but still missing Ecuador dearly
