Barn lovin' City Slicker

Growing up,  I loved to spend time on my uncles farms.  My mom had 4 brothers who all had farms.  Unfortunately, we were the "city slickers".
I would spend as many weekends with my cousins, as I possibly could.  I loved riding motorcycles, driving the tractors and trucks in the field, way before I was 16.
Growing up I would take every opportunity I could get to ride horses, whether it was at bible camp or taking horse back riding lessons.  I remember begging my parents to move to the country, so that I could have a horse.  Didn't work!
I continue to love western wear and wear my Ariat cowboy boots, often.  They are a "go- to" when shopping the Mall of America, as they are so comfortable.  While talking about clothing, I have to add~This is a pajama inspired top by Etcetera but I totally fashioned it differently.

This photo really resignated with me.  Riding in the combine with my uncles, playing in the grain bins or grain wagons were all memories of the fall.
This barn of Healing Arts Wellness Center reminds me of the one that I took riding lessons at Many years ago.  Maybe, at 50 I will start up riding again!
