[RC] LBL or a good book? - rides2farAnybody talked to anybody at LBL today? They've got a ride tomorrow and one Sat. I'm paid and entered in Sat. and for the first time in my life just thinking about throwing away the entry. They're calling for severe thunder storms and 1" of rain tomorrow and more severe thunder storms tomorrow night and another inch of rain. I've done that ride several times in the mud and the mud gets as bad as anywhere I've ever been. It might be worth the cost of the entry to sit snug in my house and meditate on what I'm missing. >g< Quick, somebody talk me into being a *real* endurance rider and suffering all weekend. On the other hand, ya'll definately have me contemplating reading a good book. By the way, my library had Glen Balch's "Tiger Roan" which I preferred to Smokey the Cowhorse. I can't remember the specifics but the stories had a bit in common and seems the ending of Tiger Roan was more satisfactory to me. Also have "Dark Horse" by Will James. Maybe that's what led me to Kaboot...admiring a horse that could turn a flip, jump up with it's rider and still win the race. :-) P.S. for those hunting kid's books: Windy Foot at the Country Fair (by Frost) Sleigh bells for Windy Foot and Maple Sugar for Windy Foot P.S.S. I think the reason my new horse is just 14 hands was that Little Black didn't fall through the ice when he had to rescue the kid who fell through on "Big Red". :-) Angie The bigger they are, the farther you fall. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
