Smile Fun

Ok girls! (or any man who wants to join us) When we can all find an open day with decent weather...I can drive 6 of us to this farm. It will be a hoot!
Everybody is scared at first...but it is neat to have something live between your legs! Plus when in a group, you laugh and talk. It is so much fun.
We will invite everybody. Even if you don't ride, you (Beady) can enjoy the farm and have the drinks and ben-gay ready for us who do!
After the holidays we will work on finding a date. And once again...everyone is invited.

Talking Hahahaha!

Best Mom, we rarely agree, except in political, but on this we do agree --
it is good to have something live between your legs!

Ladies, Ladies, Ladies,
You have me speechless. We are talking about having big strong horses between our legs.
I will stop there.

Topicop, Topicop, Admins, get over here quick! The ladies are out of control again. Where is the blush smiley when I need it.

A Horse Rescue Farm sounds like a wonderful place to support! As Cglenhar said: "A good time for a good cause".

Yes, while some of this post seems to be a little off topic (and color in my opinion, but I guess we are all adults), the horse place is wonderful. My grands had a wonderful time when I brought them there. Thank you for sharing this information.

Ok...I'm up to having something "live" between my legs...as long as it doesn't buck me off and have me slide down it's backside into a ditch during the "fun"....actually happened to me when I was 16 years old!

I'll be with Beady watching from the sidelines.

Default JNB Horse farm

Just to let anyone who is interested know, that riding at the JNB Horsefarm was really great.

The horses are well trained and well cared for, most of them being very gentle and predictable. For someone who is not a confident rider I was very impressed with staffs expertise to match the right horse with the rider. Overall, it was a wonderful experience riding thru the beautiful Ocala Forest.

Smile Great Pictures!

Wow! Nonie I'm impressed. I read your post and the operative word for me is "most" are gentle. Hahahah! I love horses and love to pet them, but am very afraid to ride. Perhaps I can just donate to this great place and go out and pet them! You all look wonderful!
