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 sorry to hear that. Just tell them you have chains :) and if that doesn’t suffice, you’re open to a new front-wheel drive car as a gift.
Cabin fever :) Good luck.
Don’t know about estrogen fumes but the testosterone level gets so thick around here sometimes, that it can bring tears to your eyes:’).
I resemble that remark.................lol
Well, Christmas is over and the hubby is up in Ohio doing black powder and I finally have some time to myself.
My new horse (the gift horse) is great other than the fact that he keeps pooping in his water bucket. We moved the
bucket and placed his hay under it and that stopped. Tonight I went to feed him and Waylon, and threw the beet pulp in his feed bucket and guess what? He pooped in the feed bucket #%$@@%^&* I think the stall is too small for him. It is 10x12 and he is a big horse.
Waylon on the other hand is like a dog.....he goes out in the paddock to do his business and his stall is clean as can be.
I love it here in SC and can’t wait to explore a little more. I LOVE not working. House is all put together and now I am going to have some FUN. Will send pictures soon....still not sure how to post.
I wish a very Happy and prosperous New Year to all my Saddle Club friends.
Happy New Year to both of you. Waiting for pictures.
Good morning everyone:)
I’ve been so out of touch, I’ve lost track of everyone’s latest posts, but checking in just to say Hi:)
Nothing horsy going on here at all. i need to check Harley and see how his bruise is healing. Other then that, nothing much to talk about.

It is the greatest thing! Gosh, I love it too. There are so many things to keep me busy, I don't know, how I ever had time to work.
Beautiful pictures!
I sure am sorry that Beaker! Sometimes the best thing to do is to just say "Bite my @$$!!", in a joking but not-so-joking way. Maybe then they'll realize how bitchy they're being and back off. But don't let them run you away from something you love, just hang in there and tune them out. Go at times when there are less of them there for a while if you have to. Hopefully it's just a foul-weather funk that everybody's in and it'll lighten up when the weather improves.
Good to hear from you estrogen! I’m glad that everything is settling down and that you’re enjoying it there. I’d love to see pics of the new horse, the new house and the new barn. Just upload them to Snapfish first and we can help you with posting them from there.
Not much horsey to report here either! Haven't even been on the computer much. Got brother here visiting and yesterday we went to Cabella's. The place is gorgeous... like a hunting and camping amusement park ;~)
I liked this hat :~)
Oh, and ecurbh, LOVE the hat! It has such a NanookOfTheNorth air about it. Just don't get too close to any amorous wolves while wearing it or there liable to have their way with you. ;o)
WOW, that’s a cool pose! I’ve never seen one like it before. But he kinda looks like my little buddy Bear, so I kinda feel bad that he’s standing there stuffed instead of stuffing his face like TheBear does.
Thank you.
Freekitty, you’ve got some gorgeous babies there! Thanks for sharing ‘em with us!
