The only people I've ever seen out riding since moving here three years ago was a bunch of rough looking guys that didn't look like they belonged near a horse, much less on one. I wish I could find riding buddies. Heck I wish I lived near you because I'm dying to go riding! I knew I was in for a long wait when I got a weanling, but sheesh I never realized how hard it would be waiting. Good luck finding a riding buddy!Achieve1dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15401246064499148344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-4666442538818140072011-03-28T19:19:11.017-07:002011-03-28T19:19:11.017-07:00Hi Kelly thanks for coming by.

I would hate for you guys to have to drive all the way out here to ride my gumpy kid broke fox trotter...lol. But if you want to I would love to have you!<br /><br />Karen I am up for trail riding together anytime. We could just do a Hampton and Steady ride and meet somewhere. Or like I said I'd love to have you.<br /><br />Kristen, that is so cool that is how you ended up finding Laz. Local tack shop...ha. Didn't I mention that I lived in a blackhole, we don't have one of those.<br /><br />SB: I agree craigslist can be risky and no decent riders to ask.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472219069662152722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-53837805684043368252011-03-28T12:30:59.289-07:002011-03-28T12:30:59.289-07:00Can relate to your post, as far as my 17 yr old da...Can relate to your post, as far as my 17 yr old daughter is concerned. We started the 4-H route, but with a leased horse. She never fit that crowd - course, you know them...$$$ 'English' qtr horses and blingy outfits!<br />We live in Pittsboror (near Brownsburg) and board our 3 in Coatesville. Daughter is now into eventing, and I am going to be entering my first dressage show next month in Edinburgh.<br />Don't know how far we live apart - but I am up for a trail ride - or my daughter (the braver, more experienced rider).Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10313417800020012776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-38694459923287927882011-03-28T10:46:21.861-07:002011-03-28T10:46:21.861-07:00I'll go trail riding with you!

I know we live sort of far apart but I could easily make a day of it. :) I could bring Hampton or I would be happy riding Moonlight. :)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609268980526224486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-35682807581946362262011-03-28T08:16:32.958-07:002011-03-28T08:16:32.958-07:00Actually..I am the same type of girl you are.

Rode and worked off for my lessons, while the girls who had their perfect ponies that were 'annoying' and wouldnt jump I would have killed for.<br />I answered a lease ad in Craigslist and ended up meeting some FANTASTIC people that summer and we all rode together..that lead me to meeting Laz. It can be good. You have to go with your instinct..there are LOTS of creeps out there too. Maybe put an ad up in your local tack shop?Kristen Eleni Shellenbargerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01458744919530540978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180006151421348693.post-31491800467003726982011-03-28T08:09:40.297-07:002011-03-28T08:09:40.297-07:00Ugh.

You never know what you'll get out of that. You might ask around if you know anyone who's a decent rider and see if they can recommend someone. <br /><br />Good luck.SprinklerBandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02948487857418394022noreply@blogger.com
