You are very welcome. Also enjoy camping, there is usually several of us that go to Cooper October-November. We could take up the entire equestrian grounds, but we try to buddy up as not to hog the place. We have traveled to Cheyenne Wyoming with the horses, then camped out in the mountains of Buffalo.....nice place, nice people there.
I understand about living in a small town, I live in small town about 52 miles NE of Plano/Dallas. And there is one house across the way, another a mile or so up the road.....Nice people, although they don't come outside much. They say we make them look bad because we work our place and ride all the time.....didn't move out here to sit in front of TV.
I can saddle up, ride out the gate and not touch pavement for hours. I rode with an equestrian drill team for a few years, I learned balance and posture real quick. Hard work, but great fun. we did local rodeos, parades, and charity benefits for children. I love the charity benefits the best, city children's faces would light up a room while watching the horses perform for them.
We have six horses, not the kind of horses you put a child or an inexperienced rider on.....like a horse with spirit, they keep my mind focused. They like to be busy, we work cattle, team pen, team rope, barrel race, some play days, and do trail rides. I would ride every day, but the job gets in the way. :lol:
