This Is The Dream - Christine Harrison & Ima Radical Hour

Being retired does not mean that life has to slow down! For some people, lifelong dreams are finally attainable during retirement.

Christine Harrison is now following her childhood dream of owning a show horse. As a child, her and her sister each had a horse. She was able to show her horse at a few all-breed shows as a teenager and from there the dream of showing had always been in the back of her mind.

As life would have it, horse showing was not in the cards for Harrison. Once she graduated from college she moved to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. She moved so that she could travel the world and experience other cultures. She worked as a neonatal respiratory therapist and was on the transport team for infants for over 25 years.

Rodeo Vogue- Maxi Dresses

by Janzen Jackson

Maxi dresses are not a new trend in fashion, but they are becoming increasingly popular. With the floral feminine look being more on the rise this spring, maxi dresses give the illusion of being very well put together with little effort in planning a look.

If you are anything like me, that makes a huge difference in my daily activities. Some events I have weeks to plan for while others are spur of the moment, and I need to look pieced together.
