      This would be an ecellent time to do ground training (with your vet/farrier's OK).  Ever try clicker training?  This would be a great time to try that: check out the book 'Clicker Training For Your Horse' by Alexandra Kurland.  There are a bunch
    of on-line sites as well.  This can be done even with a stall-bound horse - teach him some fun tricks, as well as usefull stuff.  Also might be a good time to check out some of the
    'Natural Horsemanship' methods, such as John Lyons or Pat Parelli - they have many ground exercises.
      This would also be a good time to educate yourself.  we have a local tack store that rents out a wide range of videos on equestrian subjects - are there any on your area?  It also might be a good time to take some lessons: perhaps you could find a working student position or internship at a local stable?
    Or volunteer at a local rescue.
      Oh to be 13 again and have some free time to do this stuff!!!
    
    Good luck and have fun while your guy heals!
