Welcome to The Meandering Mare, where we aim to inspire, entertain, and educate non-competitive equestrians of all walks of life.
Growing up as a horse-crazy child, my passion for horses extends as far back as I can remember. Unfortunately, even great passion can’t fund every dream, so equestrian opportunities throughout my youth were limited to the occasional Breyer horse. Luckily, the world has a way of coming full circle: in 2016, at 32 years old, I blindly leapt into the world of horse ownership.
Any true horse person will cringe when I say, my first horse was a 3-year old, un-started mare. My early lack of knowledge and experience brought with it a plethora of blunders, injuries and laughable mistakes. Luckily for me, my stubbornness and love for that crazy black mare has led me on a journey jam packed with friendship, laughter, learning, joy and tears
I hope within the pages of this blog, you can find what you came searching for, whether it be DIY tips, horse ownership hacks, camping tips & lists, outdoor riding reviews or just support from a fellow horse-woman who is figuring it all out as she goes.
Happy Trails Y’all!
