Karen:

I am so damn impressed here.  Truly amazing story.  How long are you gonna 
keep this up?  I would love to do what you are doing, and I think rotating 
the horses is an excellent idea.  It's so apropos, considering that's exactly 
what the Pony Express riders did, except they only went 15 miles on one 
horse, not 50.

Please tell me, how is the FEI judging going?  haha.  Just kidding.  Bad 
joke, sorry, just can't stop that Ridecamp humor.

Are you planning on doing this for 30 or so more days?  I can't imagine doing 
that; my back hurts just thinking about it. Badgers, marijuana fields, 
sunburn'd skin.  Too incredible.  Where's Trilby?

cya,
