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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Sure do!
Hahaha, if you look at the big guy in the background in the pic, you'll notice a big long haired tatooed guy. That's my dad. ;-) :-p And he had two harleys. A 49 panhead and a fairly new electraglide. His "old man's bike" I've been riding motorcycles since I was 5.
About the family compound idea...the only problem I could see is if somebody in the group wants or needs to sell for whatever reason, THEN what do you do. Either the others have to buy him out, or you've got strangers in your midst. Just something to think about.
Twice. :~)
Well, the lawn's all mowed, and I need a bath ;~D
Need any help with that? ;~D
Daddy's a big ole biker dude huh? I couldn't see the picture until I got home. He taught his daughter well, you look good. Wonderful family past time, a day at the range.
I just got in from riding with Tina. I rode Rocky. It was nice, but it looks like it could rain anytime here.
It's about time for 24, I'm going to get comfortable, see you all tomorrow.
Becky
You would have to have some rules about selling back to family. I'm so p/o at my youngest right now though that Russia isn't far enough away . 99% of the time he's good as gold. The boy cycles and just will not shut his mouth the other 1%.
Me too. I just got home from the stables. I believe I wore Miss Sarah Lee out. She was helping me with brushing and yawning:')
I'm lic to carry but I locked mine up awhile back when the babies moved in. I would take it with me out riding but I don't carry it in my purse right now.
Please keep Deaconjim and his Daddy in your prayers as his Mama has just passed away.
It got so rough for her at the last that I am so glad that she is no longer with us. She is with the Good Lord and I have enough faith to celebrate her being there. I will miss her heaps, but now she is whole again and where she has wanted to be for months.
Sharn
Good morning
Rose, DJ, keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
BEcky
Try to remember that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
Praying
Prayers for you and your family now. I am sorry that your mom had such a rough time at the end, and I hope that deaconjim and his Dad can feel that she is at peace.
