Or Angie tells you about this great pond with a firm bottom - no deeper 
than the horses knees. You believe her, go in to sponge since it's about 
a 100 by that point, you horse steps into a big hole in the pond and 
your are swimming out with a soaked saddle.

Let it dry, clean it, oil it and you're good to go to the next ride when 
it rains. There are some products out there now that are a combination 
of beeswax and oil that work really well and to seal off the wetness.

I sure wouldn't worry about a sponge.
