For myself I love to have a diary of what I did each year and how I was feeling at the time. It helps to get things off my chest I might otherwise not be able to also!<br /><br />I would probably use a card to get a fly sheet or help with one because all mine are hanging by a thread!Boss Mare Eventinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039910692009593158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-82877202413434429732014-08-18T20:22:03.142-04:002014-08-18T20:22:03.142-04:00Thanks for the recommendation!

Whether it's training ideas, fun stories, or just knowing that there's someone else out there going through the same things I am, I never regret starting my blog. <br /><br />And what I would buy... hm... I would take a good long time browsing their clearance, but I'd probably end up with a pair of breeches.

You're right, I do technically have over 100 people who read the blog via RSS and more that hit it directly, in addition to the registered Google Followers, but it's just a nice, tidy milestone to be able to point to that number.

Ever since Google got rid if their reader, I've been managing the blogs I read through feedly.com. I don't think I show up as a follower.<br /><br />Anyways, I don't blog myself, but I do love reading about what other people do with their horses and seeing all the lovely photos. I was attracted to your blog because of the Welsh Cob (visited a breeder when I was searching for a horse myself) and because you're in Indiana (I am too :) )<br /><br />As for purchasing, I think I would put the gift card towards a halter bridle. I would really like one for trail riding. I'd probably get a blue nylon one, but would want to look into the other synthetic one they offer first. <br /><br />Congrats on 100+ followers and thank you for the opportunity to win :)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10226075899357413733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-17336523816263976042014-08-18T08:45:00.364-04:002014-08-18T08:45:00.364-04:00I love Zephyr's Garden's "Stop the It...I love Zephyr's Garden's "Stop the Itch" healing salve.

One of my favorite things about being an equestrian blogger is seeing how so many different people manage blogging, work/school, life, and horses. I especially enjoy seeing everyone’s photos and reading reviews/discussions of different horsey products.<br /><br />My horse has gotten a lot of bug bites this summer, and I’m currently seeking a cream/salve that helps with itchy bug bites – I’d love to use a gift card towards one.<br /><br />Congratulations on 100 followers! Thanks for holding such a great contest - I love following your blog and think it’s great that you ride a Welsh Cob!The Aging Ponyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025951425607109708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-26326605249804297652014-08-17T09:44:58.368-04:002014-08-17T09:44:58.368-04:00Actually jumping!

I also love how supportive everyone is of each other. I don't have many horse friends with moving around, so it's great to make them online!<br /><br />I would use the $50 gift card towards new breeches.

Currently she has a used one, not-waterproof, in *green*, and it's only slightly broken..
