One never stops mourning. I so know how you feel. And when that dream involves horses, it is even harder, as they are living beings one loves with all of one's heart. It was a heroic thing you did but I know it was really heartbreaking.Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-47994345585431922762014-04-01T12:08:51.928-04:002014-04-01T12:08:51.928-04:00Thank you, Annell.

I know how to do without power, haul water, and bath in the creek IF I have to do so.<br /><br />The dogs are not just for pleasure but an invaluable part of the farm team. I am hoping Bonnie will learn from the older ladies and be able to patrol for coyotes and the mountain lion we have seen recently.<br /><br />The best compliment my husband ever gave me on our anniversary was, "All these years together I have never been bored".<br /><br />Thanks once again. I do believe you have bolstered my confidence.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219479223227928561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-47450302687245664962014-04-01T08:48:54.649-04:002014-04-01T08:48:54.649-04:00Wonderful post…I cried when I read about her horse...Wonderful post…I cried when I read about her horses…we really shouldn't have to give up all of our dreams, and it seemed Gail did.

I can only imagine the sense of loss she feels over her horses but there is some comfort in that they are helping others as part of their journey. A for her humor having left her, I don't think so . . . not one bit. It's often her blog posts that make me laugh out loud. Great feature and I enjoyed meeting all the animals. That's a whole lot of dogs you have Gail. :0)Kathryn Dychehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175563748388497142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-69353725338828787912014-03-31T14:48:33.756-04:002014-03-31T14:48:33.756-04:00A very interesting interview, Sherry and Gail.
