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, usually about our horses, sometimes about our dogs, gardens and other stuff we do. :~)
I have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and MissTargets will ping everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list.
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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Beautiful little girl and amazing accomplishments for her. Congratulations!!!!
She is fortunate to her parents to have given her such opportunities, also.
Sounds like Ramius is going to have 4 little bunk-mates. ;o)

It's about time! She sure is a gorgeous mare and I'm sure she'll have an equally gorgeous foal. Congratulations!
Sounds like you're between a rock and hard place with the kitties and Gidget. But I wonder if she would really hurt them, hard to say, and I guess I wouldn't want to take the chance either.
My roll off dumpster was just delivered. We are going to have a busy busy weekend. I may have overdone it on size, but I'd rather have it too big then too small.
Becky
Wow... I’d say that would be very helpful in getting rid of excess frap!
I’ve become convince Gidget wouldn’t ~mean~ to hurt the kittens, she’s just so much bigger than they are, and I’m not sure she’s a particularly ~skilled~ parent. She means well, but she’s awfully clumsy.
Beautiful mare... all the best to you and her!
Congratulations. She’s a beautiful mare.
That is a really big dumpster :)
Good morning.
Looking at my garden this morning, made me wonder if you ever got any morning glories planted?
Becky
Not yet, you think it’s too late? I decided I’m just going to plant a few at the edge of my whiskey barrel and let them climb up the fence there. We may take out and move some of the other fence so I don’t want to plant them all along it.
Trouble is, we haven’t bought new dirt or flowers yet. Maybe this weekend! I did plant my sunflowers though.
Yesterday, the price of diesel went up to $4.799 here. I filled up Monday, when it was $4.59.
We are going camping and riding this weekend, about an hour's drive away. Not too many of those trips are going to happen, with those kind of prices.
You all have a great weekend. We are leaving in the morning. Taking horses and 4-wheelers for the boys.
That’s really a shame. Seems kinda petty on the principle’s part. I hope somebody overrides him and lets the kid attend.
Sounds like a great weekend. Y’all have fun and don’t get too sunburned. Take plenty of pics too!
Yeah - it seems petty, that’s why I posted that I wonder if we’re not getting the whole story... like the kid didn’t just come to school, he took a yeehaw gallop around the grounds or otherwise caused some major disruption. I mean... the police were called.
Have fun, don’t forget the camera!
I don’t think it’s too late, especially since you are still having some cooler temps.
A few of mine has just reached the bottom of the trellis, and I find new seedlings growing everyday.
Becky
Well, have a great weekend.
I’m heading to clean up. I’m meeting Kristy at the vet. She is taking Harley to have the yearly routine done, shots, teeth, coggins, etc. Then we’ll have lunch together and grocery shop. I’ve got to load up on stuff to keep them all happy this weekend while they are here working:)
Becky
Well, we hope to get some flowers planted this weekend. Need new dirt.
Have a good day... :~)
