Okay...I'm in--fellow horse lover! I haven't been on Medium for a while. I'm glad I decided to troll around. Your homage to the elders who taught you how to live well as you age reminds me of my Fantabulous 5. I was in my 30s I was privileged to be allowed to hang out with them. They were in their late 60s to early 90s. Half the time I couldn't keep up with THEM! They taught me well! At 64, life is pretty damned good!
