[RC] New Topic - Our Crazy Common Bond - Carrie - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF

Ok, I'll start off . . . 
I was riding the the start of the LD on the Malibu ride last May, when I
had a tack issue and had to pull off to fix it.  My mare was dancing
around like a loon cuz she wanted to catch up to all the horses that
were passing us (race brain & herd sour).  I'm short, have bad knees and
cannot mount from the ground.  I found a great log to mount from but she
wouldn't stand still long enough for me to mount.
A group of 4 riders came upon us and one of the ladies (tall) got off,
held my horse for me so I could re-mount and get on my way.  I thought
that was one of the nicest things a fellow rider could have ever done.
I didn't ask her for help either, she saw my comical distress and
offered to help.  I did not know her, so whoever you are out there,
thank you!  I have many more stories like this, but I'm just citing one
for now.  =)
Carrie
