Thread III: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1311311/posts |

Free Republic has a lot of horse people that have found each other on other threads . And since we all like to talk horses, how about a thread where it is not off-topic, but is THE topic?
A few of us thought it would be interesting and informative to have a chat thread where we can share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. We may not ~always~ have a lot of activity, but when we do, it will be fun. I will put a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts look for it there and wake the thread up!
I will also develop a ping list for horse threads that are of interest. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in . There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news . Legislation that might affect horse owners.
I am hoping this thread will be a fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.
Sorry, post 1379 is for you. Wasn't paying attition when I clicked that.Oooopps:)
No. We're usually here on Monday nights. We might go eat somewhere, I haven't bought groceries this week.
Becky
LOL. Get you a rain coat and sit out there anyway.:)
Well' Trvis is going to play golf when he gets off work so I thought I would come up to your house for awhile when I get off. If that's ok with you guys.:)
Works for me. But you might have to sit outside in the garden:)
Does Travis go back on nights this week?
Becky
Why would I have to sit out in the garden?
I didn't get to read the threads about the Preakness this weekend, and didn't find out till today that the same horse won it as won the KD. What do you think the chances are of him getting the triple crown?
Becky
Is the Preakness a horse or a race track?
Because that's what I'm going to do:)
So you'll probably pick up Blake Fri?? I filmed a movie last night that I want him to come up here and watch with me, you can come too:), but I don't know how much you'll like it. I think he will. Do you remember "Jason and the Argonots"? The movie where the guy fight the little skeletons? We thougth that was pretty cool when I was a kid.
Becky
The Preakness is a race. One of the three big ones. I a horse wins all three it's a big deal. That was what Secratirate (sp) did.
Becky
The three are: The Kentucky Derby, the Preakness, and The Belmont Stakes.
Becky
Seems like you have to put in a lot of hours :') Where I go, it's appointments only. Just have to schedule the darn things though. I'm written in for Tue. Been awhile. I'm pulling it back in a pony tail .
Oh,no. It's computer babble.:)
Well, I'm the manager so I have to have 40 hrs a week. We're also open seven days a week.
I know. Been there :')
Well, maybe I'll go pick him up, then you can just come here from work and we can have supper and watch this movie. Will his momma mind if it's me?
Becky
If you want Blake could spend the night with you on Friday and then Travis could come pick him up when he gets up. If you don't want to or already have something planed thats fine though. Just an idea.:)
Do yo have "Supercuts" there? I started going to them even before Doot started working there. I like being able to just walk in. I've got to be in the mood to get my hair done and if I schedule it never happens when I want too:)
Becky
That sounds like a great idea. His mom won't mind. We can talk to her about it Tuesday at his graduation. Good thinkin mom.:)
OK, we'll see whats going on then. But I will try to arrange my schedule so I can go get him. If we wait for you to it would be way late to watch the movie. But we'll figure something out when it's closer.
