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.

Morning. Cloudy and breezy here which is good since our AC unit died. I'm supposed to ride at three today. I may have to cancel though.
Heck, if it'll rain I'll cowboy up and ride in the rain! So long as it's not lightning. I draw the line there!
How come?
It's a good one... It's about Russian Jews before the Russian Revolution... and it's about trying to hang on to old traditions and old ways in the face of changing times.
Not sure what put it in her mind to watch. I've loved it a long time, it has fabulous music and terrific characters.
Well, you're more of a cowboy then I am. I hate riding in the rain worse then mud:)...One year it seemed like I did every competition in the pouring rain, and I got my fill of it.
Becky
Well, I rescheduled the lesson until tomorrow. Works out better for both us us. I hate being tied down here though.
Well good. Now you won't have to worry about being rushed. I hope the test score thing works out ok for you too.
Me too. I'm making it but afraid to turn loose of any savings right now. I miss my spending money:')
I just got an e-mail. I passed:')
WOO HOO! Good Job! So what now?
Now I whine and cry.lol (I didn't want to start until the 10th but I start Tue , going around and gather data from charts).
I've noticed it... and at times I've been called a meany for asking them to slow down and proof-read what they write so we can understand them.
I logged off from over there, I need to get this house cleaned and some projects done, I don't have time to train that horse today :~)
OK:), I won't bother you any more:)
JP and I found a turtle...We've been watching it...and just about the time it's starting to come out of it's shell, JP loses patience and picks it up to see if it's "door" is opening:)
I need to go distract him with something else so maybe he can see it come out:)
Becky
Oh - you can distract me... I have to sit down once in awhile!
Take pictures of him :~)
How's Pony?
She's just fine :~) Saw her prancing around on her happy feet a few minutes ago, trying to see if she could piss off the other horses so they'd play with her.
She just has an ugly cuticle problem :~)
That's good:') I'm trying to mow the back yard. It's hot (not that I'm complaining) I ran over a piece of rope. I got it off but I guess it's flooded or something. I'm giving it and me a rest. I'm pulled out.
