My wife would like to get a horse or two if we get the land for it. I had a horse when I was a teenager out in Wyoming. Haven't ridden for years, but it was really nice! Been hunting on horse back a few times.

I would recomend getting two horses, or finding a boarder. Horses are very social and should be kept with at least one other horse. Also, never just let two strange horses into an inclosure together, specially if they are both mares! You know how women can get

Heehee...That's funny Jason! I hear you, though. We would probably get two if we ever did get horses. It would be nice to be able to ride with someone also.

Yeah, most of my miles are just me and the horse in the wilderness, but I enjoy riding with someone else.

Just gotta find more people to ride with

I always enjoyed taking the horses up to our hunting camp. Nothing like riding in the mountains!

Morning Steve! Jason, we had to worry about the bears where we hunted also. Grizzlies were just getting to be a problem in that part of Wyoming. Pain in the butt having to put all of your food 40 feet in the air!!LOL!

I traded my horse for a motorcycle to my ex and then her horse got hit by lightning and my motorcycle got stolen. So she was stuck with my red app.
