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!
Hay fields are hot places to work with all that sunshine.......... : )
I can imagine!!!! Is it raining?
Spoiler? More than one entry?
LOL! It has not stopped here since this morning. Not a heavy rain, just steady. : )
Well, that is good. Hopefully we dont see any nasty hurricanes.
Hopefully not until hay season is over and all the new hay is stored inside the barn......... : )
Yeah. My new job expects me to be there if a storm comes in. My husband would be locked in at his job too. They said they would have a place for pets. hehe!
When is hay season over?
I almost wish I was a storm chaser. It would be so much fun!!!
Do they know that you have horses? : )
Usually by September but we have baled hay in October.
Do you have to replant it, or is it like strawberries?
Shhh.
No replanting, it grows back naturally each year. : )
LOL!
Hehe. Your cavalry saddle sounds neat. The most cofortable saddle that I ever rode in was a dressage saddle. Have you ever ridden in an australian stock saddle?
I don't have a problem with my butt or my legs so much as my lower back. I don't know if it's because of the terrain that we go over or what, but in the ring I never have a problem.
We have hawks all over the place because my trainer hunts with them, and those that she releases stick around.
How did the horse get killed? If you don't mind me asking.
