Don't blame you. How are you feeling?
Huh - good advice to file away somewhere!
Of course, one thing I stress with people who have horses that are tough loading, particularly if they didn't used to be, is that the idea of "Make it hard out of the trailer, and comfortable in the trailer" extends to your driving as well... it only takes a few bad corners and sudden stops before the trailer is a scary place again.
I'd recommend that people who have never ridden back there try it sometime. I've ridden several times in the back - in the past, riding with babies to keep them quiet and help them balance, and it's a good experience to encourage slow and easy good trailer driving.
Anyone up?
I will agree with Beaker that you should look for another place to ride. You do not want to get caught in a crossfire while riding those trails.
BTW; there is nothing like having several heavily armed hunters on 4wheelers ride up to you in your pasture and inform you that they are going to hunt on your land...........
What did you do?
Told them that there would be a cold day in H*** first, and I meant it.
Good for you. Yall have a good day. Hi Ho, Hi Ho it's off to work..............
Have a good day at the salt mines. Hopefully I will be back slaving away soon.
Busy today...end of the month stuff. Yuk!
Mornin' Miss Targets!
I watched that one too and also thought it was very good. That's basically how I trained Tennessee to get in my 3-horse slant. He's still not "happy" to be in there, but he will get in. I've got to find some time to work with him on it some more, before I take him to that shoeing clinic. I hate having loading problems in front of a bunch of people who want to "help". It's dark every day when I get to the barn so it's really hard to get it done. I'm living for Daylight Savings Time!
I'm busy today - trying to get the place ready for company!
Me too! I spent all day printing 1099s yesterday. I so appreciated the folks in accounting waiting 'til the last possible minute. And of course the main printer was not working when I got in there and I had to go find another one, which happened to be down the hall in a CLOSET. Nothing like running a large impact printer with the forms door open in a confined space. Luckily I had earmuffs.
When's Ruthy coming?
I'm flying out in the morning. Plane's due to arrive at 11:30am (West Coast).
*smiling*
Oh sorry, I didn't know you were here. I'll bet you're excited!
hehehehe....I'm really looking forward to it.
I mentioned in the Hobbit Hole that I don't think I'll get much sleep tonight since I'll be worried about missing such an early flight.
She'll be here tomorrow afternoon :~D
