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!
Yeah - I just put it down in one corner. You can resize it too.
On the mac there is a margin to put open windows in, I put it there.

Cool! Well, glad you’re back regular like!
It’s nice to be back:) I didn’t realize how hooked I am on this thing....not sure that is such a good thing:), I’ve been a real crab lately:)
Becky
If our internet is out I barely know how to function :~)
LOL..
Well, since I don’t have to go to town first thing to work on the books in the morning I’m going to ride. Julia called earlier wanting to ride, so I called her back and she’s coming in the morning.
Our weather has cooled off really nice and is suppose to be nice again tomorrow. It was only in the 60’s this morning.
Becky
Good morning:)
AHHHHH....coffee and the internet:)
Becky
Congratulations!

I’m playing with my new DSL, testing to see how long it takes to do things. This is incredible:). I downloaded a couple of videos I took this morning...it was done by the time I went and got a fresh cup of coffee...
I took these more for the sound...Rocky talking at feeding time. It’s always cracked me up the sound he makes as soon as I walk out there to feed, and he keeps it up till the food is in the pan. The first one is when I’m walking out there, the second is him waiting for me to put it in the pan. They are very short, because I didn’t know how long it would take to load.

Heh. Those are great :-)
Good morning! Glad to have you back, and able to load videos :~)
I liked listening to Rocky... :~)
He’s funny:) Likes his groceries.
My horse is saddled, and I’m waiting on Julia. It’s a perfect day for riding, and I have the camera in my saddle bag:)
Becky
Good! Look forward to the pictures! It’s a little foggy this morning, will be sunny later they say, it would be a pretty good day to ride here too.
I don’t mind not being in the woods this weekend though.... too many tourists!
That’s great news, it would be nice to work 5minutes away - no long commute and a chance to go back to school :)
That was so cool - I could watch both of them. Maybe because they are so short? He’s got a really deep voice there, saying good morning and where the heck is breakfast.
Leaves are already falling here and the dogs are shedding out getting ready for their winter coats I think.
We’re back from our ride. I took a few videos:)

Question about loading videos...I have two others that I’ve tried loading and the little bar will jump to 50% loaded real quick then doesn’t seem to go any further, is that normal? Am I not giving it enough time?
Becky
Your videos load in seconds, play part way and stop, finish loading and then play the rest of the way. At the end, I can replay and watch it in it's entirety.
Hmmm... it seems like it should be a steady progression... I haven't had them freeze like that.
