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.
You know, this will sound real sappy, but your saying that kid could go far with him made me think, last night we were watching something on TV, can't remember what, but there were horses running across a pasture, and it brought tears to my eyes. You know there is just nothing prettier then a horse, nothing. Mack was laughing at me. But thinking of a young girl with a pretty horse,...well I'd have given anything at that age just to pat one.

Great pictures!
Hi Cindy! Got back from my martial arts class a short while ago, and have been busy on other threads. What's up?
~smiles~
My first one was an pretty homely guy (the mustang), but I loved him dearly.
Hey. I tried to get cute on post 4047 and now all my comments just keep going across. Is there a way I can fix it?
not on this thread but my "comment" section
It'll stop doing that after that post drops off the bottom of the page, just talk alot.
Yep, what HOTD said.
Thanks guys:')
I think she's working under a trainer at that stable.
I love that picture of the bucking dressage horse. It looked like the horse in the first cross country picture is in the middle of a fall. Or maybe it's just the way that he's jumping.
The first picture is most definately a fall.... do you mean the second one? - the grey? I think the grey is twisting to clear but she made it that way.
My favorite as I said was micro. We prepared all semester for the party. In the lab we made (grew) cheese, corn beef, wine etc. Of course we grew non-edible bugs too. We keep them in a seperate incubator though:')
I like the buck in dressage too.... it looks like the horse ~might~ have even fwapped the rider on the back of the head with the tail ;~D
My favorite is 4055:')
My little pony? ~shucks~
If I has to pick it would also be the one running thru the water. I like to see horses in water for some reason. BRB.
