>>> At 65, I'm a lot more interested in trying to be light in seat and hands and give my horse the easiest possible way of carrying my aging and heavier body. My toes are pointing out and my feet are flat. Oh well. I'm lucky to still be riding at all.
You have a few years on me, but after I broke my back, I was happy to simply be able to sit on a horse for a few minutes. I was interested to hear that you too have had a broken back. (L1 compression fracture.) That I can ride at all again is a blessing, and that I can feel pretty secure riding green horses is a miracle. :) Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] No virus found in this outgoing message.
