Please keep active with horses! I’m 72 and have 2. Without family and no close friends to speak of, my horses really do give me a reason to keep moving. I thank God for them and my dog and that they are in my life!

I have been riding 30 years and am now 73. Not having my horse to ride and care for has allowed depression and unneeded frustration to my life. Will find other ways to work with horses because they truly do bring peace and serenity to your life and give you a reason for getting up every morning.
