Maybe now is not the time …

November 5th, 2009

But it really doesn’t matter, too late to go back now.

1) got a horse.

2) Whoa! Way too much horse for me.

3) Tried to find somebody to ride her regularly.

4) the only people with an appropriate level of training – to ride Rody – have their own horse to ride.

5) Now: here I am, at 55 years old with a bum knee, trying to ride a Grand Prix Level hunter/jumper, with Level IV dressage training.

Now some may say I am too damned old to learn new tricks, and that I will die before I ever am able to ride this horse in the manner to which she had become accustomed. Guess I’ll die trying, then.

What do you think?
