Yoke
This message is from: Tonja Acker-Richards tacke...@aol.com I wonder if more seasoned carraigefolks might respond to this. We plan to buy new harness for our guys for driving, single pleasure and later double. We seem to prefer yoke type. Do you think judges will be prejudice against non breast collar type harnesses? We can skip the giant workhorse hames and have those for farm use already...from nice oldtimer. Our training harness is ok but puts a dent in Nickie chest we dislike when hooked to meadowbrook. Also we take Midwest harnessmaker reccommendations.

This message is from: Don Jane Brackett [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hehehehehehehehe Backyard rider can be found wearing (in summer) shorts and bra, Much to the distress of her teenage daughter, a friend of mine made a find at walmart. A dark blue bra. almost looks like a halter top so much more acceptable to wear in the barn and garden! Right! :)
YOKE alert ! Crabby people need not read.....
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This was on my Draft Horse list today...Gave me laughing fits, enjoy ! Lisa The Riders Natural Horsemanship devotee looks like a throwback from a Texas ranch, despite the fact that he grew up in the suburbs of NJ. Rope coiled loosely in hand (don't want to send any messages of tension, after all) in case he needs to herd any of those kids on rollerblades away from his/her F-350 dually in the WalMart parking lot. Cowboy hat is strategically placed, and just soiled enough to be cool. Wranglers are well worn, with that little wrinkle above the instep of the ropers, and lots of dust (well, you know, from the round pen) on the lower legs. ~ Dressage Queen is freshly coifed. Not even she remembers her own hair color, but she has taken great pains to ensure that Rolf, the hairdresser, makes the perm and highlights look natural. Diamond studs are elegant and stately, and not so large that they blind the judge during the entire passage-piaffe tour. $30 dollar denim jumper worn over $300 full seat white breeches and custom Koenigs. ~~~ Hunter/Jumper competitor is in an aqua polo and those breeches whose color could be compared to, um, well, okay, let's say they're khaki. The polo is so that folks will think they're a jumper rider until they put on their shirt and stock tie. Baseball cap is mandatory after a ride, in order to provide free advertising to that trainer's stable for whom they shell over a mere grand or so per month, and to hide helmet head. ~ Eventer is slightly hunched over. This could be from carrying three saddles, three bridles, three bits, and all related color coordinated gear to every event, or it could possibly be a defensive posture where he/she is unconsciously protecting his/her wallet, which is, of course, nearly empty from buying three saddles, three bridles, three bits and all related color coordinated gear. Looked down on by the H/J's as people who just run their horses at fences and by the DQ's as not real dressage riders*c Eventers are smugly convinced that they are in fact the only people in the horse world who CAN ride, since the H/J's don't jump real fences and the DQ's don't ride real horses. ~~~ Endurance addict is wearing lycra tights in some neon color. Has not read the rule that lycra is a privilege, not a right. The shinier, the better, so that they can find her body when her mount dumps her down (another) ravine. Wearing hiking sneakers of some sort and a smear of trail dirt on the cheek. Sporting one of the zillions of T-shirts she got for paying $75 to complete some other torturous ride. Socks may or may not match (each other). Backyard rider can be found wearing (in summer) shorts and bra, (in winter) flannel nightgown, muck boots, down jacket. Drives a pick-em up truck with the cab filled with dirty blankets and dog hair. Usually has deformed toes on the right foot from being stepped on in the Walmart sneakers that are worn for riding. Roots need touching up to hide the grey. 2-horse bumperpull behind barn filled with sawdust/hay. Can be found trying to teach her horse to come in the kitchen to eat so she doesn't have to walk all the way to the barn.
A Blond ( Nordic ? ) YOKE
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi List ! Heres a BLOND JOKE, but horse related * Dont read if you cant take a YOKE ! A blonde decides to try horseback riding, even though she has had no lessons or prior experience. She mounts the horse unassisted and the horse immediately springs into motion. It gallops along at a steady and rhythmic pace, but the blonde begins to slip from the saddle. In terror, she grabs for the horse's mane, but cannot seem to get a firm grip. She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck, but she slides down the side of the horse anyway. The horse gallops along, seemingly impervious to its slipping rider. Finally, giving up the frail blonde attempts to leap away from the horse---she decides to throw herself to safety. Unfortunately, her foot has become entangled in the stirrup, she is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground over and over. As her head is battered against the ground, she is mere moments away from unconsciousness when to her great fortune.. Bobby, the Walmart greeter, sees her and unplugs the horse. -

Story is that their stock drifted, and because of the continuing severe weather, it was weeks before they located them all. Nansy was found in a small field---no water (just snow), no grass (just sagebrush). The QH that drifted in there with her was dead; Nansy had merely slimmed down some. ;-) same thing happend awhile back. Think the areas called Donners Pass now.OMG ! did I say that !
