Re: [RC] Temptations - Barbara McCraryIsn't it strange that as we age and become more battered and broken we relish comfort more and more? When I was in my 30s, I loved the discomfort of backpacking, camping in the snow, preparing dinner on a one-burner backpackers' stove for four other family members who were cold, tired and suffering from altitude sickness. I'm not so sure I could carry a 40# backpack anymore, and should I be able to, I'm not sure I'd want to. I have wonderful memories of those experiences, would love to see that country again, but maybe from the back of a very surefooted horse.Barbara ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cindy Collins" <ccollins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <sehredt@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, February 18, 2005 8:15 AM Subject: Re: [RC] Temptations <sehredt@xxxxxxxxxxxx> on Friday, February 18, 2005 at 9:46 AM +0000 wrote:Funny...I've always seen it as a strength.

When I was young I thought I wanted to be rich, now I just want to have fun, be with people I love, and have enough money to keep riding.
