Two for the road

A former friend used to tell me never to ride the day before a trip. 

"It's tempting fate," she said. "Something will happen, and you won't make it to the airport."

Later today, I'm flying to California to see my mom and my sister.

I went riding yesterday.

And again this morning.

It's a brave new world.

I'm only going to be gone for a couple days, but I already miss my pony.
