Wild Women don't get the BLUES!

About Me

I am passionate about life & love! Endurance riding is my addiction. A healthy one, for sure! Wanting to relocate somewhere more horse friendly someday soon.... Auburn, CA area would be cool to be near Tevis! Want to train on the Western States Trail & ride Tevis yearly! Completed 22nd in 2004, survived 70 miles in '05. 22nd again in'06! Raven again kicked ass! He was the first non arab over the finish line.... & the only gaited horse to finish!! Professionally I've been a self employed pet groomer for over 30 years & I breed & show Standard Poodles. Great horse dogs! I grew up in NJ.... fox hunting, Pony Clubbing & endurance riding. Endurance stuck with me! Wouldn't mind fox hunting again either! I also love going out to live music, especially the blues! I'm one of the founding members of the Rainy Day Blues Society here in Oregon. I love dancing!

My Interests

Endurance riding, Horses, Standard Poodles, blues, health & well being....

I'd like to meet:

I am seeking a man who has gotten through his co-dependencies. I have! I have had an adventurous life & am looking for more. I would love to find a man that would be interested in endurance, too. It's a great sport! Or at least trail riding on my conditioning rides. I'd like a partner to share the fun with! Be a dancer & love the BLUES!

My truck died a horrible death last night. It was innocently parked on the road by my house, my roommate's car right behind it. Full moon craziness, a high speed chase after an armed robbery in a stol...
