You have to keep you eye on the trail and if you want to hear
your riding partner scream, you got to learn when to duck at the right moment
- just at the last minute, so they don't have time to react
;-)!
I was riding with my friend Beth who had turned her head
to say something to me and turned back just in time to take a banana spider
right on her helmet. She did the most perfect flying dismount off her
16 hand horse and had her helmet off by the time she hit the
ground.............yes, I laughed til I cried. Now this is the
same woman who will get off her horse and pick up snakes on the trail for
our entertainment (I have pictures)..........go figure!
