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.

Espresso and cold milk, sometimes with a sweet creamer in it too :~D
It's 96 degrees and 60% humidity. Don't need to go to the sauna on a day like today. I can't even breathe out there.
OOPs:)
I do that often, but usually catch it. Fingers on the wrong keys.
Cold coffee,,,yuk. I have to drink a little coffee in the afternoon, or I can't make it till 10:00.

I don't know what the humidity here is, but it's high. We have cloud cover now, and it feels like rain.
Becky
I'll remember that... Give Becky a hot coffee in the afternoon :~D
I'll have mine cold if it's hot out :~D
With cream, no sugar:)
Becky
Got it...
That seems easy enough to arrange! :~D
Owwwwwwwwwwwww:'(
About the same here. My bones are aching but I don't see much happening , weatherwise.
I'm going to check prices. It would be nice not to be dependent on your job.
No lie. I guess they cash it before they give the packets out.
Storms are starting to fire up west of here, moving this way. We may have another bumpy night.
Keep your eye on the sky:'(
I lived in Ft Worth for about 8 years. I can remember 1 snow storm but I don't remember any bad storms. We must have had them though. When we moved to the East side of Houston, it seemed like it stormed a lot.
I wish we had a storm shelter. I don't know why they aren't more common in this area. My neighbor has one, we can run over there if things ever get serious.
I would like to have one or a small basement. We don't get a lot of storms but it only takes one.
No kidding. Never hurts to take precautions.
I'm in the middle of making my mother in law a photo album for mother's day. I have tons of pictures that she's never seen so she asked me for a filled photo album. I'm printing them out on one of those little Picture-Mate printers.
Looks like we've got a big storm heading this way too.
Becky
Eek. Well, batton down your hatches ladies.
Grapefruit size hail in the
Pan handle. GRAPEFRUIT SIZE!
