*New* The FreeRepublic Saddle Club - Who's Who *pics*
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?
This is a horse chat thread where we 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. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.
I always have 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 also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. 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.
So... like the previous threads, this is intended as 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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Hopefully tonight I can get the size bumped up because that realy makes a difference. Her stomach has really dropped since yesterday.
Did they ever find out what caused your dizzy spell? My Mom has those. She has a heart problem that causes her to have low blood pressure at times.
Ahhh Well, sunlight would be entirely too much glare... We noticed with our cam that it really didn't do well when there was extreme light and shadow, it can't cope. Just a limitation on those little webcams. Yours isn't all that bad, really, taking a webcam image off a TV, transmitting it really small and then me blowing it up, and ending up with an identifiable horse ;~D
I was stupid and hadnt checked my sugars or taken care properly and they hit rock bottom. I knew i hurt my arm cause it swelled up and went black and blue, but i had so many things to do i didnt take too much notice.
As for my cats. Yep, they are a pain, bit I love them (all 3) and they are better than mice who would give me a heart attack! : D
Im fine, just annoyed that i may not be able to ride.
I can see her pretty well. Thankyou so much : D
Has she waxed yet?
Oh yes, she waxed up four days ago.
Oh yes, I had forgotten about your blood sugar problem. Gonna have to take better care of yourself. Maybe now that you don't have quite so many responsibilities you can relax and do better.
I know what you mean about loving the kitties. Me too. I've been giving myself allergy shots for nearly 10 years now because of mine, but I wouldn't have it any other way. A life without cats or horses isn't my idea of a good life. :o)
I'll take the watch tonight then! : D She has got to drop soon poor thing~
Is she out of her stable now?
Looks to me like she's moved over to the left side of the stall. Maybe. I think I can see her side.
Did you know William Shatner rides TWHs?
I believe she is out right now. Hubby said he was going to go out and walk her around some. It looks like the stall door is open - sun coming in from the bottom right.
Heh - of course you're right... that is a trot, not a running walk.
That dude sure juts his jaw out... and he looks like a kinda creepy Alan Alda.
That page I linked said Zsa Zsa Gabor also rides TWs...
Aw man, does that bring back memories. Haven't been to a drive-in movie in 20 years or more. Last time I went you still had to hang the speaker on the car window. You're lucky that you've still got one in your area.
LOL! Yeah he does now that you mention it. When I first posted this pic several months ago and we had a big discussion on the evils of big pads and "action devices" in the gaited horse world, I think Beaker had the best description of him as looking like a big vulture that was waiting to peck someone's eye's out. He kinds reminds me of the creepy undertaker in some old horror flick.
I remember the discussion about the horses... but I had forgetten that rider! He does look like a vulture!
You must be so excited!` I saw her belly a few mos ago and she looked so ready! Im going to say goodbye now, as my arm is giving me a fit.
Have fun!~

It was funny because I think the antenna on my Jeep is messed up and the sound kept getting fuzzy. I was in the drivers seat and the only way I could get clear sound was to put my left knee up on the steering wheel, or hang it out the window. (honest to God!) I guess my legs were acting like rabbit ears. (Boy am I showing my age to even know what rabbit ears ARE!) We got some really funny looks from people coming back from the snack bar let me tell ya!
