Thumbs up Riding Horses

If anyone wants some fun... Try JNB Horse Haven Farm. (Located close to the Villages) This is a horse recuse...gentlest horses in the world. When I am in the Villages I ride there all the time and have taken all my friends.( and many had never ridden before...they have a blast!) You ride in the Ocala National Forest.
Grandchildren love it too, especially to ride with Grandma! (Yes they have steps you walk up to get on the horse!)So if you have any questions...pm me.
The horses shelter needs our support just like all rescue pets. It is a tough time for all pet recues.

Thumbs up Good Idea

Thanks for posting this information. Could you also please post a telephone number and address for JNB Horse Haven?

It seems like a great opportunity to have some fun and support a very worthy cause at the same time.

Horses are wonderful , especially with a good barbecue sause ....However I don't recommend them if you have an allergy to GLUE .......

Horses are the reason I didn't grow up to be a cowboy !!!!! I even thought of being a cowboy on a bicycle but it seemed kind of silly somehow and if your afraid of being silly , then don't get on a horse.........

sorry Donna ------ fumar

Thanks for posting this. I love to ride and when I get to the villages I will be sure to give this a try.

Not a horsewoman. My Dale Evans chaps don't fit anymore. I will watch.

GG, it is supposedly safe for grand children, sure we can't tempt you?

Believe me, none of us fit into our old jeans or chaps. But big horses can handle big bottoms.
