I agree with Rusty about nice round horses.  It's hard to keep them that way 
if they like to stick their head over the fence and rest a hip watching all 
the action, instead of eating.  And then high fat foods dampen their 
appetite.  So, I feed the high fat stuff after they've filled up on their 
hay and it seems to be helping my girl keep her girlish figure.



As Winston Churchill said, "No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the 
saddle."  As Shakespear wrote in Henry V, "When I bestride him, I soar, I am 
like a hawk; he trots the air, the Earth sings, when he touches it; the 
basest horn of his hoof is more musical that the pipe of Hermes."
