You're too funny,
Truman! Wendy and I got such a kick out of comparing your side of the
story to Cathy's version. You need to have her tell her side! You'll
have to get her the shirt that says, "I'm right, he's wrong. End of
story." We were glad you all were ok and could laugh it off.
I've been in a lot tighter circumstances both on and off a horse - this
one was a piece of cake. Of course that's easy to say since we both
lived ;-). Just for the record, my account is accurate and factual!? Of
course from Kathy's view point it's was all my fault. My horse is an
idiot, yada yada..........? Of course the horse I am riding is
technically hers which was given to me because he was too much a idiot
for her. He's normally pretty good for me but I got lots of practice
riding a stubborn, opinionated horse - my first endurance horse was a
walking horse mare, can't get much more stubborn and opinionated than
that. Now I see all the gaited horse riders are going to have me for
lunch. For the record the Bird did beat Ego to camp:-).
Ego is also hers so whichever horse that was the bigger ass in this who
thing doesn't matter because they both belong to her :-).

Trainer Wendy always
says, "Forget the ego and get a sense of humor." when it comes to
riding horses. ?She has more survival stories than anyone else I know.
That's why SHE'S the trainer!

Stay focused and stay loose and you will usually be okay. When you stop
riding is when you get hurt.
