Although it’s a few days late, this week’s “A View From My Horse” entry pays great tribute to September 11th, and is a very cool story as well, so I didn’t want to pass it up. Thanks to Liz for sharing, and thank you for reading.
My name is Liz Gallen and this is the view of beautiful Tewksbury, New Jersey, just an hour West of NYC. I run a small event barn called Blue Heron Farm. I’ve been here for many years and I never get tired of riding up this hill. On 9/11 you could see the debris cloud from the Twin Towers and I clearly remember it being an incredibly clear, beautiful day just like this. I also remember that businesses in and around the city closed releasing thousands of people onto the roadways. I had several boarders unable to make it home that afternoon and they ended up at the barn. It was a good day to find some solice on horseback in beautiful country.
