I remember many years ago, my husband thought that I probably shouldn't get 
a horse, because he assumed that it would become like most of our neighbors 
horses "pasture ornaments", and actually believed that if I got a horse I 
would not 'use' it.  Oh how I bet he wishes my horses were more ornamental 
now!!! hehehe

I once figured out the cost per mile.  For some of my friends we were 
averaging between $4 and $8; I'm sure it's more than that now, and of 
course without figuring in all of those extra things like trucks and 
trailers.  I think this is the reason why Trilby rides slow, she has 
figured out her cost on a per hour basis, rather than per mile.  I'm sure 
that based on that, the therapy we would all need instead makes endurance 
riding a bargain.  I just figure my horses are worth their weight in 
gold.  To me, anyway.  :*)
