Re: fjordhorse-digest V2009 #13
This message is from: katesei...@aol.com Pretty funny - my first thought was that I might as well just go out and lay down on the field and save both Joe and me the effort of my immediate falling off as I leaned down to scoop up the ball . But I may rig this up into a more doofus-friendly version for the summer (involving bigger balls and basically pool nets, I think) Kate with Joe and Della (hey...uhhas anyone noticed ALL the grass is frozen out here?)

This message is from: Emily Wigley Kate, with your lacrosse skills and love of Fjords you must try polocrosse! http://www.americanpolocrosse.org/ It's just the most fun you'll have on a horse! I love that it can be done at a walk, trot, canter and/or gallop - and is wonderful skill building for riders of all ages! Go for it -- don't just use those lacrosse skills cleaning up! :-) Emily Emily Wigley http://biscuitsfarmblog.blogspot.com/ Fish Bowl Farm • Boarding • Lessons • USEA Approved Course Design Vashon Island, Washington http://www.fishbowlfarm.com • ewig...@mindspring.com On Jan 16, 2009, at 5:12 AM, fjordhorse-digest wrote: Mine, of course, not the Fjords. We are having some chilly temps here in the deep south - it was 10 degrees at feeding time this morning. And as I focused on not getting frostbite while I was scooping manure, I discovered all of my high school lacrosse skills coming back to me! As probably everyone knows (except Robin in Florida ), pony poops freeze into baseball size and consistency and can be very tricky at evading the manure rake. I just have the funniest time scooping, twisting and tossing the errant poop into the wheelbarrow in my own version of pony lacrosse. If I could get my daughters out there we could make it a team sport! The ponies, however, are not particularly amused.
