Big Bonnie!




As many of you know, much of what I write is based on the "real" world - and the fabulous Percheron mare introduced in DESTINED is a prime example of this. Travis's Bonnie is really my Bonnie. She's 18.2 hands and does remind me of a dinosaur (a lovely one, though!). Bonnie is broke to ride, but her primary job is driving. Thought you guys would like to see pics of her in the barn getting tacked up, and then in my front pasture practicing some driving with my wonderful ranch manager and me (I'm in the puffy hat, of course!).

And, yes, it's freeeeezing in Oklahoma today!

  3. Cheers for Big Bonnie!! She's a real beauty! I know a percheron mare at my riding club (Pearly, very stubborn girl..) and every time I see her I think about your Okie girl because she looks just like her (except that she's a Frenchy girl!)

    It's great that Hidden opens from Lenobia's point of view, I really love this character (as every horse lover do I suppose)

    Best wishes

  6. Leelee - I love Partholon, and would enjoy returning there. I do have CIARA'S DESTINY in my head. Now all I have to do is to find time to write it...
