The best way to start something is to actually start it, isn't it?  To finally put down the glass of wine and close that Bloglines browser (oh, so addicting!), and make yourself take the time to do something you've been wanting to do? That's what I'm doing here.    

Here it is, Blogger:  The Scout Report.  I figured it was a pun on my horse's name, or something, since his name is Scout and scouts report on thigs and this is a report that I am writing, sometimes about myself and sometimes about shoes and sometimes about Scout.  See how it all comes full circle?

The general idea behind this blog was to document the progress I have been having/will have with my horse.  When I bought him, he was a terrified, crazy-eyed, 11-year old gelding who had obviously been beaten pretty severely in the past.  I have since spent the past few months working with him to see what he can become with a little kindness and patience from someone who believes in him.  He's been coming along so well  (albeit with some setbacks....damn horse reached over and bit me one day), and I want to ensure that any future milestones are documented.  The idea of having this blog has been gestating in my mind for quite a long time, and finally, now, it's on (virtual) paper.

Plus, I want a place where I can gush about how great the new Star Trek movie is.

I might be a little drunk.  That's probably the best way to introduce your new blog to the world.  

Hello, world!
