Great Quote

"We need the tonic of the wilderness" -Henry David Thoreau

I would say riding a horse on the beach counts as a tonic! Which how I spent the better part of my Sunday! Learning to take some time for enjoyment, is a very necessary lesson. So I hope you all had some fun this weekend!
A big thank you to my friend who allowed me to ride today. Now, refreshed I start the week.
