We had a terrific time. It would have been better if it wasn't so HOT! Whew!

We (horses and humans) got a lovely hose-down at the watering station. It felt marvelous!

Maybe the heat makes the horses unusually ill-tempered??

I know what you're saying re: responsibility, but with at least a dozen horses mounted with beginner-to-moderate riders out at the same time in close quarters, isn't an accident eventual anyway?

Yes and no:). what I understand of the situation you are telling tho, two people wanted to ride together on two horses that were known not to get along??? If that's the case the hands increased the chance of a situation developing and put others besides those two in a possible situation they couldn't handle well.

But you probably had to be there to really know who was at fault. But if the person whining insisted on riding that horse next to the other, well, then she should have been paying better attention and not whined after the incident.
