It works just fine :~D That way we get a nice full visit. I'd hate to be too rushed, we wouldn't be able to do everything we should do.
I don't want to overplan it, but I'm thinking we should ride at most every ~other~ day, just so we don't wear out the horses, can still see all the trails, and also take you to some touristy things like Mt. St. Helens, or the Ocean on in-between days, or just hang out and talk too.
Think you'll want to ride one day here at home in the pasture to get to know the horse, or go right out? My mind races trying to imagine and make plans... Though I know none of this really needs to be decided right now :~D I just get excited. :~D
Oh, I get very excited too:).
Mt. St. Helens, is the only thing I know of that is there that I really want to see. I've seen the ocean, Ca. anyway. I'll do anything you think I need too:). As far as practicing on the horse, if it makes you more comfortable for me to ride at home first that is fine. If she is as good as you say, and I'm sure she is, I don't think I'd have problems. I've climbed on a lot of strange horses here.
Every other day is fine with me otherwise for riding, or less even, I don't want to wear anyone's horses out, not too bad anyway:) And I don't mind just hanging around on off days visiting.
It's more just taking a trip, and meeting you guys, this will really be stepping out of my comfort zone, and there is a lot of excitment just doing that:) It's not ALL about the riding:) I doesn't take a lot to entertain me:)
