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.

If you haven't read about this 64 year old woman who rides her horses and has 2 pack mules, it is INCREDIBLE!  Wow!  This is what I wish I could do...sigh...just me, Scout and Cali!  Here's the link:

I completely understand her emotional ties to the Sierra.  Hubby and I are going through "Sierra withdrawal" right now.  Yes, I ache for them.  I'm nearly in tears when I see photos of the Sierra in the fall...and after their recent snowstorm...

Read the article, when you have time!
