Glad to hear that you're ok Roger!! Must have been the weekend for trail
clearing, near misses.... My husband Gary and I went up on Friday to clear
logs that fell in the wind storms, off our trail loop, for the practice
ride we had this weekend. He went with me on his 3 wheeler, with a
chainsaw in a basket on the back. He stopped to fiddle with the throttle
cable, and absent-mindedly let go of the clutch. The 3 wheeler flipped
over backwards and sent Gary, the chainsaw, and basket flying. Thank God
it didn't land on him!!

FWIW--I rode my daugter's horse on this trail clearing expedition,
because Special was to do the practice ride on Saturday. There's nothing
like riding another horse to make you appreciate your own!! She's such
and -excellent- trail horse, with her long, stretched out gaits... I
think I'm learning that I'm very spoiled. After my Special, it will take
a very *special* horse to ever make me happy again.
