Welcome to Free Republic! And welcome to the saddle club thread. We are a good mix of folks who like to talk horses.

Hi dad. See my last post. Ga. :)

[HairOfTheDog]

I'm another member of the lunatic fringe. I'm becky and Mack's daughter.:)

Ahhh.... so now the truth comes out! ~smiles and nods~

[Superdoot]

In case you were wondering Becky is here trying to educate her daughter on freeping. I'm kinda computer illiterate. lol

[HairOfTheDog]

She'll get ya set up.... Glad you're here. The more the merrier!

[Superdoot]

I've got two and a half horses two dogs a devil cat a rabbit three hermit crabs and a fish tank. We have a zoo.
Oh, a husband and a step son too. lol

[HairOfTheDog]

I am sure you have read enough to know that I have one and a half horses... also have one dog at the moment, and I also have a cat... Have two neons left in my fish tank, used to have bala sharks till they jumped out in a bizarre failed escape attempt!

I have a fiancee and no children.

[Superdoot]

I know that your half of a horse is a pony. My halfof a horse is the pretty buckskin that mom has shown you all. I own the riding part and dad owns the breeding part.:)

[HairOfTheDog]

LOL!

What kind of riding do you do? - Are you the one that I think is into barrel racing? - or trail? - both?

I am only a pleasure trail rider now... used to show and jump, probably never will again, unless one day I end up with my dream dressage horse ;~D

[Superdoot]

I do both, although I like to barrel race better than trail ride. I have a four year old mare that I am training right now. We are just starting to add just a little bit of speed to our pattern.

What kind of riding do you do?

[HairOfTheDog]

Heh.... just trail now, though I ride English all the time. Bought my first ever western saddle for my fiancee ecurbh to learn in. My horse is 22 and has the easy life most of the time.

[Superdoot]

It must be nice to be a horse.

I use to ride english when I was younger, and still do some. My husbands horse has the training to do the show stuff, so I play on her a little for something different. Barrels is my calling though. It's such a rush.

[HairOfTheDog]

Do you have any pictures runnin' barrels? What kind of level do you compete at? breed type events or rodeo events for cash or just for fun?

[Superdoot]

I'm actually going to pick up the horses tonight. They've been at my father in law's getting shoed. We are going to my mom's house tommorow to ride for awhile.

We're going to let my step son try riding my four year old out on the trail so we can all three ride together.

HI:)

Becky...(seems odd typing "Becky" to you:)

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

I'll take pictures of all them tomorrow.

Hey malakhi, didn't we e-mail you a picture of Jenny (signed up here as Superdoot), running barrels on the buckskin? That is before we had the ability to save our own pictures. Could you post that one for me if you still have it. Thanks.

Becky

[Superdoot]

I've got pic, but I have to get my husband to show me how to post them.

I do it mainly for fun. Usually at rodeos or jack pots. Lately since I've been just working with the four year old we've just been going to play days were the competition is pretty low.

[Superdoot]

Hi mom:) Just sign Mo to me. lol
