Of course, I didn't have anyone telling me how to strategically sit/ride the horse. That would have likely caused me to never get on another horse.

One day I was riding down a back road when one of the neighbors brilliant sons came up behind us on a motorcycle without a muffler. I don't know how I kept from it, but I didn't fall off. That was one wild ride across ditches and through fields. I walked her back. lolRoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01841824351740989301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064619473180096184.post-83692500844088628132014-04-18T08:32:49.965-05:002014-04-18T08:32:49.965-05:00I took riding lessons in college and my horse was ...I took riding lessons in college and my horse was following the lead horse who started to gallop.

I love horses. I hope you'll heed Linda's advice because I suspect that you could foster a love for the activity given the right circumstances. In any event, you sure don't need lessons on how to make them look beautiful.

Scared the heck out of me, I went sailing and I ended up hanging underneath his neck. Wish I had a film of that because I have no idea why I didn't land on my you-know what. Like you I'd rather take their photos than ride, and enjoy them that way, as I still think they are gorgeous animals.DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064619473180096184.post-66602894436188710052014-04-17T14:02:54.833-05:002014-04-17T14:02:54.833-05:00I think I'd rather photograph horses too :) T...I think I'd rather photograph horses too :) This one looks sweet, and I like her fence too.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169019570162270650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064619473180096184.post-46016844639196873902014-04-17T13:25:00.112-05:002014-04-17T13:25:00.112-05:00Oh Gail, thanks for your support!

I can't believe that I keep the surgery thing private til after the fact and then I make a big deal of the Chemo start day and make a big deal about it. Then it gets postponed.
