| Featured Website---The LIFE Foundation |
|
| Our featured website this month is The LIFE Foundation. This site is a wild and abused horse rescue site that offers a world of information on wild horses and burros, as well as very sound counsel on adopting and caring for horses.
Due to the untimely death of its founder, this site is no longer active, but the information remains in tribute. It is well worth visiting.

| Tidbit of Horse Wisdom |
|

| Reader Profile--Wendi and Cheyenne |
 |
| This is Wendi on Cheyenne. Cheyenne was killed in tragic accident not long after this picture was taken. She is very much missed and was chosen for the reader's profile as a memorial to her and to the young lady who loves her.
Wendi loves horses and loves to ride. This picture was taken on the Ft. Griffin Trail Ride (that's in Texas), a two-day overnight ride that presents different and interesting challenges each year. Wendi is experienced at camping with people and horses. And with a smile like that, she has to be fun to be around!
