[RC] [RC] Since we are on the subject of water - Kristi Schaaf

I've learned to turn a blind eye to all the idiotic
going-ons at our local equine campground (the other
option would be to sob in frustration). This last hot
humid weekend we saw a woman's horse pull away from
her when she was leading him to the trailer to tack
up. Guess where he headed? Yep - straight to the
bucket of water sitting at the hydrant about 20 yards
from her camp site (on a line right through some yummy
grass and clover that he didn't even hesitate at). He
drank and drank and drank before she caught up to him.
I suppose she had been leading him, at her
convenience, and obviously not often enough, to the
water to drink, instead of taking water to him. If we
could only take away these people's beer, and let them
drink it when their horse decides it's time, maybe
they would have a lightbulb moment, or maybe not.
Hubby and I looked at each other and said, "do you
think she just figured out what her horse is trying to
tell her? Nah...."

Life's a journey, so enjoy the ride (and try not to fall off)
