Dreams in black and white

-

I wanted you to meet my black mare - Nightfall's Indigo {Indi}. She is half draft & half quarter horse. I have had her since she was nine months old {now 5 & 1/2}, and I changed her given name as it did not suit her. I was so fortunate I chose her, she and I seem to share one soul. She is a treasure, I cherish every day. I have loved, and dreamed of horses all my life but wasn't able to realize my dream until I was 38. It seemed to take forever. After I lost my first horse, it was over a year before I felt I could take the chance to love another, she is my second kindred spirit. Whatever you are wishing for with all your heart.... Hold tight to your dreams, if even in their own time, they can come true. And if you are lucky enough, you might get two.

    What a wonderful blog! What a treat it was to find that you are in Oklahoma! My husband is from Ponca City, and my family is spread out from Edmond to Lawton. Thanks so much for the kind words left on my blog :)

Belle Starr's Grave

" Well behaved women rarely make history." *** Her grave as it is today *** I made the trip to Eufaula Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago for a family get together. I was going to visit the grave site of Belle Starr on this trip, but read up on the burial location before going. The site is rather run down, on private property and on a dead end road. You have to rustle up the owners and tramp through an unkempt weedy trail. The original stone has been removed or is gone from what I understand, so I decided not to go. I find this disheartening, that a well known historical figure, albeit outlaw, from the old west does not have a more revered grave site. I think the sad fact is, most of the famous people we know from that time have also been left in obscure places and have faded away, forgotten. ***Her grave as it was originally*** Belle Starr was "The Bandit Queen," associated with Jesse James and the Youngers. She once made the comment to a newspaper reporter -" I ...

Amarillo by afternoon.....

Do you ever, on the spur of the moment hop in your vehicle and head to parts unknown ? This past Saturday my girlfriend and I did just that and headed west to Amarillo Texas. Neither of us knew what was there, and upon arriving decided "nothing" was. We looked for the old part of Amarillo, but just found the undesirable part of Amarillo. We were just about to turn around and head back home. We were hungry and a bit disappointed. We saw two policeman talking beside their vehicles so we pulled up and asked them where the "coolest " place in Amarillo was. One of them just laughed and the other looked up towards the sky with a grimace on his face. Meaning, there was no "coolest " place in Amarillo. He told us about the place where if you can eat the 72 ounce stak and all the fixins that come with it you get it free. Her and I put together weigh exactly 251 lbs and I don't eat meat. We explained we wanted the old part, the district with fun shops and the l...
