Daily Gratitude Practice 2026 – Memories

Jan 19, 2026

Daily Gratitude Practice 2026, family, life, memories

I took this photo today, twelve years ago. It’s my daughter on her way to help me feed the horses early one morning. At one time we had 17 (!) rescue horses, her dad collected them.. and we cared for them. It was a lot of work, but I am grateful for the experience. A different life.

Would you like to join me in this Daily Gratitude Practice 2026?

    I see, I’ve never been up there or even in the north end of Nevada. It’s too cold up there… 🤣
