::grins:: it helps if you have a horse to do it, but yes, i can ride.
i took 6yrs of english riding lessons when i was a kid, and loved every minute of it. i want another horse, but can't afford one just now (damned student loans and stuff). i keep thinking that i want 2 horses: a reasonably good-quality thoroughbred/ hot-blood breed for the local jumper circuit, one which i can work the rust off (it's been a *long* time since i've been in the saddle), grow with, and enjoy competing in local shows with. and i'd also like a draft horse i can doll up in fall and winter for hay rides and sleigh rides for the kids and stuff. i wouldn't charge anything, because seeing the joy on their faces would be plenty good enough. everyone should have at least one hay ride in life. :-D
