The Mandans had nice looking horses too, when George Catlin painted them.
(I have a lot of experience in this area!)
Then have the hose standing by and rinse it thoroughly, then shampoo and rinse thoroughly again, then lots of conditioner.
Btw, bleach has no effect on hair in drains. Ammonia is probably what they're using.
Linus was unbelievably stupid, but I think he must have been dropped on his head or something. I agree with you that most Apps are smart — often cranky, but smart.
Wow! THAT’s a trail ride! Pretty impressive, looks like the hunt club Poker Ride or something! That’s the only time we get that many folks together.
About the only time it bothers me now is if I practice aikido (judo) rolls for 30 minutes or so!
Good news! Glad things are looking up.
Lotta horses! Glad you had a good ride! It was forecast to be rainy here today, and the rest of the week for that matter, so we decided we wouldn’t be riding and left our trailer at Bob’s, since we’re hauling alpacas from there on Friday, but it’s actually nice and sunny here today. Hmmmph.
Hmmmph here too...we are getting rain, rain, and more rain...and it’s being forecast for all day tomorrow too.

hmmmph.
Rosie’s across town and she keeps reporting thunder and hail. dark clouds all around, but nothing has actually fallen out of the sky, yet.
We did manage to clean stalls and go get hay, as long as it was still dry.
Sorry to hear that some of you are having not so nice weather. It has been really nice here. Temps in low 70's and sunny. A vet is coming to our fairgrounds tonight to give shots. We will take a couple over to save on a farm call. A friend of the kids, who is a barrel racer, wants to know how to show pleasure. My daughter is going to help her. She can ride Bodie and Jody while I am still recuperating. My eyes have to be kept clear of dust.
Frog, great pictures. I can't wait to get out there and do some trail riding with a nice group. It's the camping I love. My trailer should be ready in a few weeks....yay!
Good morning! Had a chance to look back at some of the messages and those pics are awesome. Would love to go on a ride like that but can’t imagine our boys being good about the camping part.
Hope your eyes are recovering well. Hopefully you won’t be down for too long because we’re in for some beautiful weather.
Our first show is a week from today...I think that’s when it’s supposed to rain again, of course.
A full hay bag tends to make the best camping horses. If they stand at a show, you would not have any problems. There are always worries about getting loose, tangled in ropes and the weather. Good planing and common sense to make sure everyone is safe. My biggest concern was riding with a bunch of Yahoos, who had no regard for other riders.
Ours have never stood at shows either. They are usually 3 days long so we’re there a day ahead of time and get stalls.
My mom’s old horse did used to go to one day hunter shows. That sucker pulled away from so many trailers she lost count. It was like a game. He wasn’t bad before and he was fine after. But it was like it wasn’t an outing if he didn’t get to be bad. Good thing he was so good at his job and placed very well!
So have you ever tried to fix the problem of pulling back? If so what did you do?
Becky
Send some our way! We are 12 inches below average and everything is turning brown!
We have a great group of riders around here. You will have to come camp at KC Ranch in Double Springs. They have stalls and electrical hook ups and good trails.
I know, I’m trying not to complain because last year we were in the shape you are in now.
I just wish it would rain at night and be clear during the day:)
Still raining this morning.
Becky
Honestly I don’t remember. This was 20 years ago. I think she only went to the one day shows for one summer. We have arabs and have enough breed shows in the area that we just ended up going to them and getting stabling.
Oh no, I was talking about the horses you have now. I got the impression you can’t tie them either?
