Y'now, I figured out why it is that I was so excited about starting this blog and I think about it a lot, but don't post very often. It is because it is winter and you can't write very much when you are on the carriage in the winter!!
One of my plans for this blog was to reference my rides from the night prior to posting, whether vaguely or specifically. The reason being that people are so interesting. Heck, even I'm interesting. I was thinking last night about how truth is stranger than fiction (how flippin true!) and how I prefer being a fiction writer for that very reason. You can control aspects of people that are none of your business in real life.
Anyway, I did one ride last night, no tip offered. They were lovely folks, living a bit of an alternative lifestyle; I offered to take their picture in the park by the river, specifically thinking, in the back of my mind, "This'll get me a tip for sure!". It didn't work, but Happy Valentine's Day for carriage driver's. Very little rain, good weather, should be a busy night. I best get going, lest the rides go without me.
Welcome to Horses In The City! I'm Karin and I have been a horse and carriage driver in Downtown Memphis for the last seven years. You can befriend me on Facebook at Horses IntheCity! I have the same posts on both sites. This blog is to talk about driving a carriage, philosophies, humor, horses, God, spirituality, my husband, my pets and a few other things.
