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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Now I gotta go check it out too...
You taking the hose or the sprinkler?:')
The Fire Hose I think! Jeez....That thread on "Everyone's Faith" is really strange. Where do these people GET these ideas? I guess that's what happens when your Mamma and Daddy don't take you to church and you just try to piece it together yourself.
Even then....I took 3 to church Sunday. The 4 y/o needed some hand care so we stepped in the hall. When I walked back in it was prayer request time. The girl and boy were presenting their case loudly. Sarah wanted everyone to pray for Joshua because he was......Joshua was loudly saying "no yall need to pray for Sarah because.... The preacher looked at me and said how about if we just pray for the whole family.
Cool, doesn't it make you feel good when you fix something like that? When I do something new and challenging I get am proud of myself. Hey dirty job but somebody had to be proud of me! LOL.
Southern Baptist have to dunk you good.
Yep. I'm puffed up, esp. since my husband thought he was going to have to come and fix it for me. I've needed a lot of stuff done lately, and haven't had time to be on the list. I've surprised myself with what I can do on my own.
I think we were all sneezed out of the nose of The Great Green Arkleseizure, and are now awaiting the coming of the mighty handkerchief to wipe us clean. :~)
I'm buddhist... everything is as it should be. :)
LOL:) That makes as much sense as they were making:)

I was going to post it there too, but never got around to it :~D
Now go for, just look out, you'll have one of those witches over there casting a spell over you:)
Becky
You certainly stirred up a hornets nest...were you expecting that?
Becky
NO, LOL
Good nose... It's a Hitchhiker's Guide reference :~)
Heh... I have my hands full right now with what I've already done :~)
I'm a huge Hitchicker's Guide and Python fan. :-D
The Golden Retrievers are back where they belong. A girl, who is a friend of the owner, saw the flyer we put up at the super market. She called me, and asked about them, then the owner called me. There were 3 pups and the older dog, that had taken off. Something must have happened to the 3rd puppy.
This owner (a lady with 3 kids) is getting a divorce and just moved to a place, on the next street over from me. Her one son had left the gate open on the kennel and the dogs took off into the woods. The older dog was named Cody and he is 9 years old. He is the pup's father and they were born in July. She lost the mother and 2 more of the pups, when they took off a few months ago. Strange huh? I had to mention to her, about the male being so skinny. From what I gathered, they do not seem like very responsible owners. Those dogs would have had new homes, come tomorrow, if I would not have gotten that phone call. Alison was so upset, that the dogs left, but the lady said she could come and visit them.
Oh what a great end to the story...kind of an Incredible Journey:)
I'm sorry Allison is upset, that's kind of like Ole Yeller:)...did she "rock her when she took her dog off:)"
