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 MissTargets will now be pinging everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets 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!
BTW - I ended up getting 10 bales of grass hay while I was there (as long as it's nice out) so with the dog food it was still $100... hope that's OK with the bank balance ;~D
Speaking of naked...I saw your South Park self-portrait over on the "Create a South Park Character of Yourself" thread. Verry Cute! Ecurbh's was too, but he had clothes on, the party pooper. ;o)
Oh dear - I forgot about that :~D
LOL! There were some very strange-looking characters over there.
Hopefully fiction is stranger than truth ;~D
LOL....how come the no clothes portrait:)
Harley and I had a nice peaceful ride today.
I put the cashell back on him. I think I'm going to try to find something different. I think it's great but it makes it even harder to get on:). The saddle just won't stay in place. Do you think a thicker one piece pad would make a difference?
I probably just need to work on getting on and off more would be a better solution:)
Becky
And of course I took the camera :~D
I don't know if Cyn just has a long blink rate or what, but it seems like I catch her running with her eyes closed more than any other horse ;~D
;~D
Thought the lighting looking back into the shade was cool
I think it's good to take a good look at them without blankets from time to time over winter. When they wear them all the time, it's not easy to assess their weight. All look pretty good to me :~D
A thicker one piece pad might be a real good compromise between the thin one and the cashell.
I was young... I needed the money :~D
??????
Yeah, I'm going to see if I can get some for Okie.
Bay looks really good in that 3rd pic.
Thanks... he's a little soft from not workin', and a lot shaggy, but his energy's good :~D
I was rated as jumper big and bigger
((All the time, or just along time ago?))
((??????))
You said mom was seeing things
Oh. Both:')
Hey, lets take her on the cruise in May for her BD
I don't do boats since Mac sank us that time.
:') Have have you been? With work and Sarah Lee I've been busy. I'm also trying to start my own business.
