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.
Tired huh?:') I have spent all day trying to find a bill of sell to get a title changed. The bad thing is that I'm still looking. The good news is that I found that horse bit that I had lost.:')
My guess is the interview will be in the Mobile area. You and the inlaws will like that. Almost too hot for a horse during the summers but the winters there are nice. : )
Good mornng.
Becy
Good morning.
You ladies are up early today.
The wind woke me up. Looks like our nice weather is gone.
Becky
Yup, it's blowing a gale here, too. It's about 55 right now and the temps are supposed to drop all day.
Do you know anything about feed-through fly control?
News people are actin' like we're all gonna die. (snicker)
That's the way they act around here if there is even a thought out of one of them that we might have a tornado.
They sounded the sirens around here last year when there was a tornado 50 miles from here. Stupid.
Becky
Well it's a whole hour later here. But I was up but 6:45 because of the darn phone. I really must learn how to shut it off when I go to bed.
Good morning and welcome to the thread! It's Icy cold here too. We're getting a blizzard, and they're predicting 15-18" of snow. People are acting like the world is coming to an end.
Why was your phone ringing so early? I just hate it when the phone rings at odd hours. It's never good news.
Tornadoes fascinate me. I've only seen a couple in person, one of them was huge, but I like watching the specials on the Discovery channel.
I've been through one once. Scariest thing ever. Destroyed the whole lot next to us, but left us untouched.
It was my mother. She was up, so thought that I should be up too... I only half remember the conversation that we had.
WOW. I've never been that close to one and don't want to be. We drove through Lubbock on our way to California back in the 70's, right after that terrible tornado leveled the town. It was incredible devastation.
Looks like you better stay close to home this weekend.

I've never used the feed-through fly control... are you going to test it for us? :~D
Good morning... drizzly and 51... we are still in our odd freak springtime... Our Daffodils have started to come up and we can hear frogs.
Barn organizing yesterday wore me out, I hurt all over, but we aren't done, have to buy hay and feed for just about every kind of animal on place today.
