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, usually about our horses, sometimes about our dogs, gardens and other stuff we do. :~)
I have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and MissTargets will ping everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list.
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.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
I’m hsving trouble too
Where are they?
I'm up having coffee, everyone else is still sleeping altho I see lights on out at the RV, so Hair maybe up, just hasn't put in an appearance.
Thought I would post some pictures of last nights activities. We went to town and had a Scott's burger, and 2J joined us there, so my kids.

Then we went next door to Mack's office and played ping pong:

visited

freeped

played pool.

Hair and Blade, went over to Jenny's shop and got a hair cut. The newspaper lady also interviewed us.
Today we will be riding, and my DIL, and 2J are going to join us. 2J is going to ride Dot. I'm considering riding one of Frogs gaited horses..:) We are going to have a cookout here tonight, and a bon fire, 2J's whole family will be here for that, so it is going to be another incredibly busy day.
We have not heard from MT yet, since she left...hoping she checks in today when she gets home, and that she is feeling better.

Good morning.
Very very soggy here. Went to sleep to the sound of pouring rain, and woke up to the sound of pouring rain.
Great pictures, you guys are having way too much fun :) Hope Miss Targets checks in soon.
Good morning :) those are great pictures, thanks for the link.
Oh my goodness, what wonderful pictures! Ya’ll look like you’re having a grand time and the weather turned out perfect.
Beaker, I checked the link but I don’t know which one is you.
I tried to repost the link, but it won’t let me link to specific people’s pictures. At any rate, look at number 11 in the dropdown menu. Lortie through Macleod
(I looked for a really little person on a really big horse)
We’re back from our trail ride of the day! It was a great ride, Me (hair) Becky, Frog, Blade, Kristy and even 2J went along :~)
We’re going to have some lunch, maybe upload pictures (I don’t have any, my battery died, I forgot to charge it up can you believe that!?) Others took pictures though so we’re OK. After lunch we may get Becky on a gaited horse :~)
~Hair
I just got back from about an hour riding one of Frogs horses....ohmygawd!!!
Becky
Did you have fun? (Will she be “leaving” one behind on you?) ;-)
I think I can safely say she had a blast :~) I’m uploading pictures and a short video of her on Hope. :~)
~Hair
Excellent! I’ll watch it later. Right now I’m in the middle of cooking dinner and watching Star Trek. (heh... guilty pleasure)
Here’s the video of Becky on Hope :~)

I’m watching “Goosebumps”. I tried to find your pic but couldn’t get it to open.
