Changes...(of the website variety)

Please forgive any ongoing changes to this site...there are a few minor tweaks I'll likely be making in the next couple of weeks, but this new look and feel will likely remain for the foreseeable future.


Most notable among the changes is likely that I've changed the name and web address of the blog. The previous Project Gingersnap links should all bring you here, and all content since 2012(!how have I been blogging this long?!) should all still be accessible here, so no worries, this isn't a total fresh start where I've deleted any of the blog's history.

This blog started as a way to document my adventures with my Welsh Cob mare, Ginger, and was titled as such. It's been a few years since then, and much has changed. After a few years of being leased to my coach, Ginger moved on to a new and fantastic home. Bridget, my second cob mare has been my main riding horse for several years now, and of course we introduced Sophie, my GRP youngster just last year. In short, I feel writing as Project Gingersnap lost it's relevance and I was well past due to update to something more current.

See, it's still me ;)

I hope you all don't mind the changes and will stick with me for future fun and adventures with my wonderful ponies!

    1. It felt like a bit of a cop out - it seems like a lot of businesses here are "raincoast" this or that, but the name was free and fits, plus I was tired of trying to come up with something!

    1. I didn't think the blogging thing would stick this long, but I still enjoy it. Lesson learned - the new name is more generic and rider central, so as long as I don't move too far away from the PNW it should remain a good name and allow for lots of future stories!

  5. I've been waffling on changing the name of mine recently as well (because life, of course) so kudos to you for doing the thing - it has a really nice ring to it :)

    1. Thank you! I'd say go for it - once I committed to it, it literally took 10min to change the name and redirect to this site. I'm a bit worried about potentially losing some of my favorite readers due to them not seeing the name they might expect, but overall it feels better having a name and design more reflective of my current life :)
