Survey says: The people have spoken. Unanimously. It’s okay for me to wander about, narratively speaking. [For those who missed last week, I posted on a completely non-equine topic, Seven Life Lessons Learned From Candy Crush, and then asked for opinions on doing so, Off Topic: Yay or Nay?] I received two further pieces ofContinue reading “Poll Results”
