Hot New Release! Turn Right at the Sarcophagus

July 7 2020

Hot off the e-press!

Turn Right At The Sarcophagus: An Egyptian Adventure is my latest travel adventure e-book. It's already a #1 New Release in Egypt travel!

This one isn't just a book about horses. But horses are a reason I ended up in Egypt. If you're a horse lover or a travel fanatic, this travelogue taken from my journals of my first trip to Egypt will give you a little entertaining taste of both. 

You'll meet Maryanne (many of you know her!) and her zany, entertaining animals, ride horses in the countryside, visit the Giza Pyramids and the Khan Al-Khalili market, explore the backroads of Giza, tour the Sinai, climb Mount Sinai and wake up uner Mount Sinai in a Bedouin camp, and gallop a horse through the desert around pyramids.

The print book should be out August 10.

Happy armchair travel-reading!

The Umpteenth Owyhee Fourth of July Parade

July 4 2020

Way up a crick from a tiny little town in Owyhee the best little July 4th parade in America takes place. 

For the umpteenth year, rain or shine (it’s always shine), Parade Mistress Linda and her random Critters put on a homemade parade for a few select guests. 

Each year, you never know quite what the parade will bring (neither does Linda…). Linda may have plans, but her horse, mule, miniature horse, a randy mini-mule (who was gelded shortly after that one year’s parade), donkey, jackass, dogs, etc, get dressed up, but they all have free choice to participate in whatever capacity they choose.

This year Linda, aboard Ted the Wonder Horse, carrying Our Nation’s Flag, ponying Hattie the Spotted Mule, led the procession of assorted dogs, and was joined by our dog Luna and, briefly, my horse Stormy until Hattie the Mule kicked him and he left, no longer interested in parades. Linda’s goats didn’t come all the way up this year, (we missed them!) and the pigs simply refused to leave Linda’s driveway.

But as usual, it was the best parade ever, the best kept secret in Owyhee.
