I was talking with a friend last night and asked her “Have you been riding your horse lately?” Her answer was very emotional. She said “I don’t ride anymore, my horse died this Spring.” At first there was bit of silence and then she started talking about how much she missed her horse. The horse had been her loving companion for the last 24 years.
Her horse was more like a family member than a pet. He had been there through “thick and thin” with her. They saw many trails and beautiful sites together and I’m sure she has many memories that are as precious to her as the memories of a lost family member would be to most people.
This love between a horse and horse rider is so beautiful. In many instances, they share more beautiful moments together than in any other way.
Adore your animals and appreciate every moment with them, you never know when it could be their last. For that matter, adore your human friends and appreciate every moment with them too. It’s a wonderful way to live.

Ms. Hettinger Riding Isaac Sidesaddle
I had the good fortune to grow up horseback riding in a beautiful part of New Hampshire. By far the most intriguing rider in my neighborhood was Ms. Rhonda Watts Hettinger. Rhonda is a 5 time national sidesaddle champion and author of The Western Side Saddle, The Encyclopedia of Sidesaddle, and Sidesaddle’s Greatest Ideas. She is also on the board of directors of the American Sidesaddle Association. When I was growing up, Ms. Hettinger rode a handsome horse named “Isaac.” Ms. Hettinger and Isaac were always easily spotted at shows as Ms. Hettinger jumped Isaac, riding sidesaddle. This, in and of itself was impressive. What made this feat even more impressive is that Isaac was blind. Ms. Hettinger and Isaac were so well known they even rode in 3 different presidential inaugural parades. (They were scheduled for an additional presidential inauguration, but it was canceled due to the cold). Rhoda rode as a regional affiliate for the American Sidesaddle Association. Riding sidesaddle allows a rider to ride with both of his or her legs on one side of the horse. Riding side saddle is found as far back a recorded history. In the Middle Ages riding sidesaddle was adopted by women as a way to ride modestly, while wearing fine clothing. Many sidesaddle riders enjoy dressing in period clothing and participate in historical reenactments. More information on riding sidesaddle and pictures of Ms. Hettinger jumping Isaac side saddle can be found at http://www.americansidesaddleassociation.org/jumpingphotos.htm

Three Quality Standards of Gold Equestrian Jewelry
