Re: RC: Horses in California

["B.E. Jackson" <riosanbravo@hotmail.com>]

My heart goes out to you, moving to the OC beach area of CA. It is NOT a 
horse-friendly place these days. I lived there for 17 years and we still 
have a house on Balboa Island. We used to ride on the shores between Corona 
Del Mar and Laguna. It is VERY developed in that county , especially by the 
beach. I believe there is still pretty good trail riding inland and to the 
south. (The poster from Norco could fill you in more.) There used to be 
horse activity around O'Neal Park, but I couldn't tell you now. The good 
news is, as of a year ago there was a fairly good boarding stable in 
Huntington Beach, on Golden State Blvd., (Huntington Beach Riding Club, I 
believe. No trail riding to speak of, so expect to trailer somewhere for 
that. I don't know the board, but the place is pretty upscale, so expect to 
pay a lot. I think they do turnouts and have beaucoup trainers who can work 
with your horse while you're slaving away at that hopefully well-paying job. 
When you get tired of the rat race in CA, you can always come visit us CA 
refugees in AZ.
