If she will join, I would rather she tell it in her own words. She is an old friend and we met while renting stalls at a stable. She had just bought a horse and wanted to go for a ride on it. I had already been out on a ride and rode up right after it happened. All I saw was our redhead friend trying to walk and get her breath back while being supported by two people. I asked her what did I miss and all I got was a look with daggers in them......... : )
Oh no the poor thing! Well if it makes her feel any better, tell her that I once fell off a horse while it was standing still. (No... make that twice)
So have I and the cause was ... you guessed it, a loose saddle girth. : )
You know, I never thought to ask, but I'm sure it's not as efficient as what he does with the horse noogies.
A winch, a wench, a healer, and a heeler. ;~D
No, I haven't heard from her. You'll probably have to nag her for a year or two like you did me before she'll sign up.
LOL! Somewhat different aren't they?!
LOL! Do you remember the night of the Christmas Parade that we were going to ride our horses through the front door of the redhead's business office? The truth is that if the door had been open ... my horse would have went inside. : )
You're lucky that redheaded temper didn't smack you into next week! If she could've got her breath, I'm sure she would've. Coz I'm sure you laughed like a donkey.
Yes I do. I don't know what you would've done once you got in there, but there probably would've been police involved. I would've laughed like a donkey then.
Oh, and I want to stress the point that YOU were going to ride through the door of her business, NOT ME! I was gonna watch and take pictures for America's Funniest Videos.
I didn't laugh like a donkey but I did ask her if she would do it again so I could see what happened.
You could really see the daggers in her eyes then...... : )
I picked up a new copy of Lehman's Non-Electric catalog this morning where I bought the saddle soap. It has almost anything for living off the grid. It is mainly for Amish families though.
LOL! No, my horse would have been a perfect guest and we would have walked right back out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah...right after leaving a steaming pile right in the middle of the floor. She would've really been mad then.
Oh yes, I can see where that was better. ;o)
The Lehman's catalog is pretty cool, from a purely philosophical point of view. I don't want no part of no hand operated appliances. I'll keep my electric ones, thankyouverymuch!
I just wish someone would make an all electric saddle cleaner...........
Hello everyone. Don't have time to get o this thread much but I always check in.
Frog, what does your vet say about Granulex? Mine said it should only be used when flesh was lost in big chunks to build up scar tissue and kind of "fill in a hole". I thought it got rid of proud flesh. So I dunno.
The wound looks good. Clean edges, good tissue formation. Congrats!
