Re: [RC] How to reduce costs of hauling to rides - carpooling - Mary Ann Spencer

THEN factor in the job schedules... some of us have gotten off night shift at 0700 on a friday and then pack up and get a nap, or vice versa, to arrive in the dark to set up camp and get horses ready, etc etc... my daughter soon thought we would not be near as good at setting up in daylight as we always seemed to have to do it in the dark.....lol

and that is why I generally haul alone, go to the maximum
amt. of rides I can afford (I'm also paying for a junior
when she goes - shoes, tack, horse, feed, ride fees - when
she goes, I'm carpooling but paying the whole tab.) Not
complaining, just stating facts.

ps - does a thong count as big girl panties?!!! :)

Heidi, we can come up with a zillion "what ifs." Geez, we
are endurance riders. Think of all the things that could
happen to us and our horses out on trail, but we still tack
up and go out there and pay for the privilege to ride on
tough trails, long distances in sometimes miserable
conditions!

Sure, carpooling won't work for everyone, If you look for
enough reasons for it not to work, then it won't. Endurance
riders generally are a creative bunch. We can tie tack back
together with baling string, modify saddles and pads to
meet our needs, put ourselves back together with vet wrap
and duct tape....we are great at improvising!

Last summer the gas prices were  $3.00 here and rides still
happened. People still got there.

If we really want to go, we'll  put on our big girl panties
and find a way to make it happen!

This has always sounded like a good idea, but never seems
to come to fruition for me - my stepdaughter is my
carpoolee and since we pack her horse and the panels and
my 
horse (in a 3-horse LQ) there is no room left for another
person. Rides I go to alone (about 2-3 per year) I have
