Free Republic has a lot of horse people that have found each other on other threads…. And since we all like to talk horses, how about a thread where it is not off-topic, but is THE topic?
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 Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) 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.
I call it southern Ohio , it's 20 miles east of Stuebenville in a small town called Amsterdam
You around?
Trying to make a snowman.
Caught without gloves. I put socks on their hands
snow fight.
Ok this stuff cold and this one (Cody) had enough and was ready to run his hands under warm water while his Granny made him some hot coco
Those little guys look like they are having a ball :)
Yeah. I know. I'm bad:'). She did not want to go out in that stuff:')
They did. I was ill with a cold or I would have been out there with them.
Can't say that I blame her - the sun is shining though, that's a plus.
How cold was it and how long did it last?
We watched it disappear. By the afternoon it was just in spots. The kids got a chance to go out about 3 times. The next day just a little in shadows and then it was gone. (except for what's in the freezer:')
It was below freezing that night and in the 40's by noon.
Definately a good snow then, stayed long enough to be fun.
First time on record of snow on the ground since 1895 and that was in the month of Feb.
This is some very strange weather we're having - clear across the country records are being broken - for everything it seems.
They couldn't do a lot with it though. It was like fine sand. Later in the day I packed some snow balls but it didn't stick well.
Well we are blaming the snow on global warming:')
