Well a lot has been happening in the past few weeks and its led me to make a very difficult decision. I've decided to move back to Auckland... this coming Tuesday in fact. Its been on the cards for awhile mostly due to financial problems but a recent health scare pushed me to make the final decision. Unfortunately I won't be bringing Toby to Auckland with me as he is needed here for camps in the Summer and it would mean bringing him back from Mid-December to Early February. This cuts into the eventing season which I dont want to do and so he stays here. Since Red is retired (and thats where I think he should stay) I won't be riding when I go back to Auckland. I'm neither in the right financial place or state of mind to look after a horse at this stage.
I didn't make this decision lightly but I believe its the right thing to do for a lot of reasons. And so with the end of my time as an equestrian, so comes the end of this blog. I may raise it from the dead one day if (and I hope I do) I get another horse.
Thank you to all those out there who have supported me throughout this endeavour by reading my blog. I really appreciate it. I enjoyed the time I spent getting to know you and your gorgeous mounts through your own blogs.
May God bless you all.
Happy Riding and Happy Trails.
Love from Katie, Red and Toby

I wish you much success with where ever life takes you. Once a horse person, always a horse person. Best of luck to you....we will miss ya.
Katie, I wish you all the best as well. And even though you are "on hiatus" from the horsies for awhile, please stop by and browse the blogs and say "hi" from time to time.
Tally Ho!
Definitely one can argue any thought that considers the possibilities of horses taking a pause in your life for awhile isn't entered into lightly!
All the best with your move and changes in life!
Best of luck to you. I agree with Lori, once a horse person, always a horse person. You'll be back someday. Take care and be sure to visit us once in a while!
