Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

  For newer folks. Id' noticed that the 'stories' and details seem to have 
departed from alot of Ridecamp. For those of you who aren't members of AERC, 
there is  a board for members only. You can at least read it like I do some; 
or join AERC  and be able to post

 I'd belonged once,  till my main horse got ill, but didn't rejoin "yet" as 
we are moving , partly to be near somewhere to ride! As  the city has 
marched out and taken my trails, and not anyone nearby who rides trails, so 
am moving nearer the trails, then hopefully we will get back to where we 
were , 2 years ago--sigh.
  Ya ever notice than the towns most endurance riders live in are NOT major 
metro areas? They  try to confine us to ring riding here, it seems Or 
'walking trails',either it is too risky , because of too many pedestrians, 
bikes, strollers-- to maintain any  other gait.
  It has rained so much in June and July here, I can't  hardly even ride in 
my ring--which has footing. 3 straight weeks of daily rain both n June and 
July, My" hillside" pasture squishes as I walk.  My tractor is stuck for the 
3rd time!  I was going to drag a boggy area when it "dried out" , so I  
could put the hay bales further out in the easement, like I usually do in 
summer  and fall. No way.I still have slick mud everywhere, can't get in to 
drag the cut down tree  at the barn blocking the  path there. It was listing 
towards the barn , starting to lift and with all this rain, was afraid it 
would fall on the barn  during  Hurricane  season, so had to pay a tree 
service ---
  Had to take my cross fencing down, so I  can  go forward and turn  into 
the pasture to get a more gradual slope to get it up to put another bale 
out.
   The western folks can send me some rock and sand !!!   I may  go 
volunteer somewhere just from withdrawal! -- Building a house, teaching a 
kid to drive and carrying him everywhere and trying to ride and train and 
all the maintance  with a traveling husband.......
   So  am hunting down somewhere to ride a ride story at least!-- During 
the rain.......
