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 MissTargets will now be pinging everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets 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!
Ha! I remember doing that for 4-H! Was it for county or states? I went to states a few times. We got to judge Fresians once for a Sate competition. I was too busy drooling over them to judge them!
Oh, and after sending me the private message that said I wasn't speaking of her husband, she then posted on the open board that if anyone sees abuse they should report it:)....LOL....What a moron:)
Becky
I saw her post that. Has there been any action there since? I haven't been back since this morning.
I feel bad for the other Becky... This person's gonna ambush her and start chewing her out at the next ride, and the poor lady's not gonna have a clue what she's talking about. ;~)
Nah, I told her I wasn't that Becky.
I just checked over there, and there is another poster asking for my last name, and said that is the rules of the group.
I'm very tempted to just give them my last name and ask them if they know any more now then they did then... and then tell them what tuffy told me to say...they sure are an uptight group, makes you wonder why.
Becky
I just sent a scorcher over there:). We'll see what happens.
Becky
She sounds like a complete ninny, and she must have something going on, otherwise she wouldn't be going to such great lengths to defend herself.
Her husband was the one that I saw slugging his horse. I think she figured that out after Celia posted what she did.
Becky
oooh what did you say? And where's that little graphic of the smiley face eating the popcorn when you need it? :-)
This is really getting spooky, I just got another private message from the moron, I swear just now...and I've told her to stop...
This time it was about how she is in tears everytime her husband has to discipline the horse, and what will happen to horse if he can't straighten him out....
Jeez, I really don't want them to know me....especially says she has narrowed it down (so she is doing some research, yikes), to my name and one other Becky. She commented that I don't ride many CTR's.
Becky
Here's my post:
You know you guys are sure an uptight group of people.
Please answer me what difference it makes who I am. I
did not accuse anyone of anything, I was not rude, I
did not use foul language. I was asking questions.
Would who I am change the answer???? You answer me
that, and I'll consider telling you who I am. This is
a public forum, not a private group, I don't
particularly like putting my name out here.

I bet this continuing keeps me from ever getting to find out how to get the pickle smell out of a water barrel.
The suggestion to try vinegar cracked me up... Isn't that what the pickles were in?
It's a relatively small world...
She's probably got a list of the riders that were at the rider. I've denied being two of them, she knows one, so that leaves two...
I just reposted the list of rules the mod posted a few days ago. Nowhere does it say we have to give any name. I also asked the mod what to do about someone sending private messages when they have been asked to stop. I asked out in the open, not privately.
Becky
If I were you, I'd just step away from the board. She can't get you then.
