She can't wait to ride again. But I'm impressed that you ride English --you're a classy dame! Peggy — Thanks, I’ll pass that info about Malibu to Sophia. She can’t wait to ride again.

Although I don't have my own horses anymore, some friends and I still go riding - you two are welcome to come with us anytime (although we ride English, so there's less saddle to hang onto)!! For rentals in Los Angeles, I'd recommend "Adventures on Horseback" in Malibu - they've got nice horses and they're good with beginners. Sounds like you had fun!

Nobody in their right mind throws a green rider on a hot blood like a thoroughbred or even a saddlebred-too much liability, in general. Plus, a thoroughbred has what we call a "razorback"-trust me, I will never bareback my horse because I like my balls and my ability to have children too much. A "cooler" horse,like a morgan or a quarterhorse, are pretty reliable. It's like the difference between owning a 1972 Ford LTD vs owning a Ferrari. Sure,you know that the LTD has a huge engine and if you coaxed it, it could go fast, but which would you put in the hands of a 17-year old kid with a brand new license? Take care, and I like this blog a lot! How did I know that he was a quarterhorse?

I still can't. But, although I've not done it for ages, I LOVE skating. I use to skate on the Rideau Canal in Ottawa, "the world's longest skating rink." I've been on my ass on the ice more times than I can count. That's pretty much all I have to contribute. (Horses ... I like the idea of horse riding but I recall them from childhood as being extremely tall and rather indifferent to my presence.)
