Very well put!!! I started into horses late in life and was 'pushed' into showing cause that was the 'thing' to do. Personally, I don't like to show it is way to stressful to me. But if I ever feel the need to do it again, by all means I will!! I just love to be able to spend time with my horse, listen to him and have a great ride. Take lessons.......etc., To me that is the best!!! and I don't have anything to prove to anybody about how good' we are, cause I KNOW we are........and get daily displays of it...... how he is with my kids or going to new place or 'scary' things, etc. Anyhow, so far Gussers is doing ok.......as of last night he was holding his own. No word this morning on an update, so keeping fingers crossed that it is still good!!! Thanks for the private emails, I appreciate it!!

Whether you enjoy listening to them chewing hay or take them to the Olympics, as long as you and the horse are safe, and well taken care of." There are seasons in life as well, where family, work etc etc takes over, and "showing" is not on the agenda. This does not mean that you or your fjords are not doing just fine. Jann
