And WHY would he set it free in the DESERT? To let it DIE? What's it going to eat, plants and birds and rocks and things?<br /><br />Merri thanks for the pics!

I went to visit Maryanne in 2004 - you'll see a link to one of her blogs, Living in Egypt, on my sidebar. She lives on the edge of the desert in Abu Sir, which you would have ridden by on your way to Sakkara.<br /><br />My dream was to gallop in the desert by the Pyramids, even though I was a bit, well, SCARED of running full out because of my first attempts at trying to gallop racehorses in the US when I got run away with.<br /><br />My dream ride happened on the last day - OMG it was incredible. Harry was the horse (owned by one of MA's friends) and he was so amazing I wasn't scared at all when we ran full out. I'll email you a picture.<br /><br />I went back to visit Maryanne again a year later and got to ride some other horses of hers in the countryside and the desert, had some more amazing rides.<br /><br />OK, I've got to get busy on finishing all my stories now : )<br /><br />thanks for sharing!<br /> - <a href="http://theequestrianvagabond.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Equestrian Vagabond</a>The Equestrian Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15600011873327347121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916035653282070937.post-48209204404291105002010-01-10T08:13:33.783-08:002010-01-10T08:13:33.783-08:00Yeah, they throw bodies into the Nile and burn the...Yeah, they throw bodies into the Nile and burn them on funeral pyres don't they? Awesome experience! Looks like too much fun! OK. I acutally was going to devote a post to riding through the desert on a HORSE WITH NO NAME. That song kills me. If you actually rode through a whole desert on a horse with no name, would you not have formed a bond with it and named the darn horse? AGGGH! That song! Just name the horse already! :) Ok. sorry. Pet peeve there! People always think it is funny when I hear the song at work and say this, but come on, I have a great point! :)jacksonsgrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09702324347419665816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916035653282070937.post-24317556373070617012010-01-10T06:26:46.582-08:002010-01-10T06:26:46.582-08:00Wow really cool!!
