June 25th,

Yesterday was so full of fun and excitement for me. My love planned a beautiful day with horseback riding shopping and whatever suited us. I had been wanting to go to a stable for a long time. What a beautiful place to do that. Pillsbury State Park in Pillager, Minnesota is so neat! I was totally surprised By the terrain. It was heavily wooded and hilly with valleys and just quite a lot of trails. OMG what a place! The guide said to come back for rides during the fall for autumn colors and I can imagine as the views would be really gorgeous Overlooking some areas of thousands of trees. Also winter rides are available in February and I hope I feel brave enough for that in the cold. I am a bit of a priss :rain: in the wintertime. Well, actually all the time but have really surprised myself the last three years with golfing, bocce ball, and will soon be doing some biking and walking in this area. It is so neat to be out of the humid south. (We moved from Sarasota, Florida in 2003.) I feel like we started our lives over since then. We had no life in Florida because we could not tolerate that heat and humidity. It did not suit the lifestyle we wanted. We basically like being outdoors but stayed in all the time either shopping or caged up in the house. A/C was on or heat but rarely just with the perfect temperatures to enjoy being outside.

I have a week to go before my next fill. Yesterday I had my second PB after breakfast. Too fast eating I think!

Congratulations on your continued success.
