    [RC] My thoughts on S to S - Ridecamp Guest


    Mary Coleman caf@xxxxxxxxxxxx
    My very first thought is that the person
    who complained about warm orange slices
    on a competetive ride I held a few years
    back should do just one day of a ride out
    of the northeast! I was told water was an
    issue at this ride but assumed it meant
    on the trail not that there wasn't any
    at some of the holds. Now maybe if you're
    on a desert bred Arabian it ain't a concern.
    But Morgans require water and LOTS of it.
    (Just ask Cindys husband who mistakely
    only had 2 5 gallon buckets at the end of
    the 1st day). For 2 horses yet! As the
    saying goes when life hands you lemons
    make lemonade. It was a lot of work on
    my husband gathering water(maybe that's
    why they call these pioneer events?).
    Cindys husband had just as much work
    hooking up and moving rigs daily. We did
    let them stop at Cabelos coming and going
    in order to somewhat repay them. And of 
    course we both finished which is a plus.
    As far as I'm concerned it was an honor
    to particpate in this ride and to meet
    Barney Fleming too! I want to thank all
    the help and Wayne for holding this ride
    which has always been a dream of mine to 
    do. This was the hardest thing I've ever
    accomplished and I'm very proud of Hawk
    who looks none the worse for wear! mary
