LD :>I hope you remember me.....I'm the prodigal's message
LD :>writer who has been
LD :>away far too long.  I'm hoping folks will still welcome
LD :>me....
Sure I remember you.  I'd been @ondering ho@ Phoenix @as doing. (my \/\/ key 
isn't @orking...substituting @ for it.)
LD :>I hope that your Fiddle is doing wonderfully for you.  I
LD :>really admire that
LD :>you started her under saddle on your own.  I didn't have
LD :>the courage with
LD :>Phoenix, so she's at the trainer's, but doing wonderfully.
LD :>I hope to get
She's doing fine.  Although I really don't have the time to devote to her 
that I should.  She's got @alk/trot do@n pat, and @e're @orking on outside 
the arena...haven't done canter yet, though.  I suppose it's time (g)!
LD :>her back mid-August.  I can't believe what a lot of growing
LD :>up she has
LD :>done while she has been away from home.  She has lost her
LD :>"Princess"
LD :>attitude.  She is very willing and is eager to please her
LD :>trainer.
That does come @ith age.  Fiddle really started to settle do@n this year.
LD :>I hope to be getting on her for the first time within the
LD :>next week or
LD :>so.
Ho@ exciting!!!
LD :>Did you get another horse?  For some reason I thought you
LD :>might have.
LD :>Anyway, I hope to be a part of Equus again.  No,
LD :>really....I mean it.
Yeah, sure (g)!  Yes, Idid get another horse...she's an 8 yo Appy named 
Shiloh.  I use her for a small riding program I've started here for girls @ho 
are considered at-risk....sort of catching them before they get into trouble. 
 A kind of big sister @ith horses.  It's going really @ell.  I love the kids 
and they love!!! Shiloh.  She's very quiet and patient...tends to spend her 
time falling asleep!  She has a lot more personality than I @ould have 
expected from an Appy (especially since I'm so used to the Arab pizzazz!).
@elcome back!  Keep me posted on ho@ you and Phoenix are doing!!
Meg
