Thanks, but I have a fear of heights and falling. Actually my height! Sitting astride a steed would put me in the clouds! I fell on ice once, broke 7 ribs and bruised a lung.
9 days in hospital and 2 months recovery. Ribs still hurt and I swore never to stand up again! Seriously, horses are fabulous especially if you grow up with them.

I understand! I’d still be riding if I hadn’t developed Osteo in this hip. A fall from that height would be crippling. I also learned when I was little. Kids have no fear. LOL
