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:)

We can't be goin' all the time or we'd wear ~us~ out, right? :~D
You won't have trouble with the horse, she's gold in temperament. Only thing that worries me is Tiffney's still got all her horses barefoot... I'd still pay to shoe her if Tiff would let me. She says they're all doing just fine but I know she was ouchy on rocky rip-rap roads last time I rode with her. That's OK if she's otherwise sound, we won't be on much rock.
We don't yet know how much time ecurbh'll be able to take off work, but it might work out just fine for us gals to go a time or two by ourselves, and then he'll join us on the weekend. :~D
