DT>That sounds like fun.  A couple of the people I board with are into
DT>trailering out for trail rides.  They really seem to have fun.  They
DT>go one both one day events and camp outs.  The one day event I
DT>would like to do next year is the wine ride.  You ride from winery to
DT>winery and sample and they have a really nice lunch then ride to some
DT>more wineries.  I don't usually approve of drinking and riding but you
DT>don't have to drink wine you can have soft drinks or some of the
DT>wineries have alcohol free wine, but the way this group drinks there is
DT>no danger of anyone having to much to drink.
DT>My horses are spoiled but I expect good manners.  I think my
DT>horses have some of the best ground manners on the ranch and there are
DT>over 50 horses.  I will confess to being just a little prejudiced about
DT>them though.

I'm not much of a drinker either, but that sounds like fun.  Around here
there aren't enough wineries near each other to do something like that.
I think what I like most about the camp rides is from the time you drop
your trailer your among friends.  The second night I stayed at Big
Piney, (a family owned trail riding organization not far from where I
live) I knew everybody there, of course it was a small group due to the
weather, but it was as if we'd all known each other before.  The best
night I had was when a lot of us built a big fire and sat around picking
guitar and singing late into the night.  I'm planning to go back next
month.
50 horses huh, that's my dream.  I love horses.  One day I'd like to get
into breeding and have 20-30 horses at anytime.  I put more trust into
horses then I put into people.  One of my friends, she teases me about
being a country song.  She says she can picture me as an old cowboy with
my trusty horse by my side.  I don't know, sometimes I think she may be
right.  Well I'll shut up now.  It's great to hear from you again, and
if you've got any advice on raising a foal I welcome it.  I'm green at
this.
