Re: Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] Horse experts - Karen Sullivan----- Original Message ----- From: "Opal Perry" <operry2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> When did you participate in endurance? ALL endurance rides in America are sanctioned by AERC.. no one can find you in the records, not even LD. So when did you participate? Watching from the trailer? Reminds me of a hot-shot sheriff possee guy leading a poker ride some years back in our neck of the woods. We went to participate and take our kids; knowing it would be a slow; ploddy ride....which would of been okay except for the know-it-all who sat there on his fat unconditioned QH in his heavy Western saddle, chaps, spurs, cowboy hat, too-tight breastcollar and laughed at our helmts and tights....and blew a lot of hot air all the ride about all the endurance riding HE had done (could not remember the names of any rides, of course).. The topper was 2 hours out on this very long, boring, hot ride, we came to a delightful huge brown puddle in the ruts of the road....."well, the spandex crowd (us) made a beeline for the puddle where our horses chugged down this wonderful, brown-tinted puddle water. Mr. Chaps-and-spurs was just horrified!! Exclaimed loudly to the whole group that HE never let his horse drink out of muddy muddles, that it would make your horse PEE BROWN!!! At that point we all just lost it and had a good laugh. Karen =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
