Our hostess Darleen greeting us to historical Fort Edward, New York

Filled with slide-show presentations, snow & ice, rest, books and new friends, our time in the Glens Falls, New York area – the winter of 2014/15 is slipping away.

Gave a talk for the members of Fort Edward’s book club, (a lively bunch)

Horse Illustrated did a very nice article by Dusty Perin in the Feb. issue.

Glens Falls lovely historical Crandall Library

Essie and Spirit are happy, healthy, full of mischief. Thank you so very much to those of you who have generously donated hay, grain, brought apples/carrots and attention for the two deserving horses.

There is much more snow on the ground now. These are collapsible water buckets from OutFitters Supply in Montana… they work great as feed bags!!

A Crucial American Victory

Here in the autumn of 1777, American forces met, defeated and forced a major British army to surrender.  This crucial American victory in the Battle of Saratoga renewed patriots’ hopes for independence, secured essential foreign recognition and support, and forever changed the face of the world. Saratoga National Historical Park is located 40 miles north of Albany, the state capital, and approximately 15 miles southeast of Saratoga Springs.

The girls and I  have settled comfortably into Eastern New York. Snow arrived last week with a burst of energy but has now disappeared under warm sunny skies. Essie and Spirit have prepared for a cold winter like we have in Montana but I doubt they will need the thick coats they are sporting. We shall see.
