[RC] Horses drinking - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

Can't help but chime in here, just to make ya all jealous. :o) My
Tempo horse, will get a huge drink of water, BEFORE starting. As
long as I give him a nice 10 minute or so warm-up, he wants his
water. He is one that will drink at the first water, and prefers
it be in the first mile. He has a nice big bucket all night, so
isn't "needy". My last horse would wait 15 or so miles before
drinking. I think I like "Mr. Water Me NOW", as I don't worry
so much. Plus it is a quick way to know if something isn't quite
right, early on. Haven't had that happen yet...knock on wood.

It is how we "feel" deep inside that matters, cause each of us knows the
truth, regardless of how we try make it complicated.  It just isn't.
