Seriously, you have brought up more interesting threads...
This is another good idea.
I smiled at Truman's instructions to the crew - to have the sponge wet
already. That is also good advice to give to a novice rider - on my
first ride I was so nervous I was lucky to remember to get on the horse!
My sponge was dry as a bone and took *hours* (so it seemed) for it
to soak up enough water on trail - darn thing just floated. I remember
watching the people in front of me in awe as they barely missed a beat -
had their sponges unfurled and in the water as soon as they came to the
creek, and took off trotting, winding their sponges back up....as mine
floated....
Just a funny memory.
