I can not respond to your personal email as I read
the archives, and your email won't show there. I just want to say---good
job for staying on! It sounds like what happened was out of your control,
and you managed to stay on and finally get stopped. Things like that
happen with the horses we ride.
Also, I am sincerely sorry that you have found some
ridecampers to be mean spirited, FWIW, I have too, even with 7000 miles of
experience! Please know that for every one that is not encouraging and
kind, there are 40 more that are, it just doesn't seem that way
sometimes!!
My old mare who has been across this country three
times and many many endurance miles, will still wheel at the sight of a
cow. Go figure.
