Desert Horses

Welcome to my horse blog, Desert Horses. We live in the desert southwest, near Palm Springs, CA, but board our horses up in our local mountains where it is cooler in the summer. I have 4 horses, all rescues. Here is the ranch up the mountains where the horses stay.

We're HOME!










































































































We're home, FINALLY~We pulled in about 6 p.m. tonight. The car was absolutely STUFFED with gifts and wine and I couldn't see out the back window, but we made it home safe & sound! Phew! Now to unpack and clean up the living room. Apparently our German Shepherd found some books and chewed them up while we were gone! He NEVER does that! He's a very well behaved dog, but I think he got bored and just grabbed some books to chew on?

We left Sunday the 21st and stopped in Solvang, CA for breakfast. Solvang is a little Scandanavian town past Santa Barbara. We love to stop there and get apple pancakes for breakfast. NOBODY makes them better than The Little Mermaid restaurant! You can look in the window and see them being made, too! I finished breakfast early and wandered around the town taking photographs. Here are some of them...

That little town looks so cool...where is it?

It's Solvang, CA, which is right next to Buellton. Both are about 30 minutes out of Santa Barbara, off the 101 highway.
