Quite a Day

The afternoon after lunch looked good to ride my beautiful Fancy.  Terry and I got home.  I changed into riding clothes and went out to get Fancy.  I was going to ride in my nearby arena, first time since last Monday.  We have been in heat hell here, too hot to ride. I got Fancy in the trailer and looked for Emma to get her in the house.  Oh, she must be in the house.  Sometimes she goes into the house before I get Terry and his wheelchair inside.  Fancy…
