Re: [RC] Cavalry and Calvary horses ridden to town - Nancy Sturm

Hi Ed,

I also came to enduraance from driving (and other disciplines).  When I
thought I was too old to ride, I  bought a 14.1 hand pony, a meadowbrook
cart and some  nice leather harness.  I still have all of this stuff (pony
included) but I quickly became bored with having nowhere to go.  I could
drive about two miles from my house across an open hay field and up a farm
road ... and then I could drive back.  Yuk - I got on the pony and headed
for the hills and haven't got bored yet!

Before I did endurance, I rode and drove on a charity wagon train.  The

year 

I trained a buggy horse, I decided that I better take her on city streets 
with traffic etc.  I drove 6 miles to the feed mill in town.  I went in

and 

ordered my feed.  The clerk asked me where my truck was parked.  I said

"Its 

the only horse and wagon outfront".  The whole feed store instantly

emptied 

to see this.  The 70 year old owner said that this was the first horse

she 

could remember in the last 30 years.

Unfortunately, I get bored with  horses walking so I trained her mostly

at 

the trot.  After 3 days walking at 3 mph on the wagon train, she went 
bonkers.  I had to pull her from the train, and then decided to try CTR

and 

endurance.  I've never looked back.
