Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

It's been 10 years since I dabbled in combined driving, but I still like revisiting the tournament photos I took back then 🐎

I think my new light filtering window shades help with the photo lighting problem a bit 🤔

A year ago today I said goodbye to my best and last horse. She was smarter, braver, and more dependable than I deserved and proved herself everywhere we went. I'm just glad I was able to make her final hour nice for her.

The grief is still really, really brutal.

Her rider is wearing black and an empty thigh quiver, holding two arrows. An old photography of a roan horse walking across a grassy pasture, followed by a piebald foal.
