Not sure I could have been that smart! :) I had a good laugh at the "the Bermuda Triangle of horse eating monsters." Isn't that the truth, though? Around any corner, there could be something that might EAT them!

Glad you had extra gripiness for those shenanigans. <br /><br />The Bermuda Triangle looks pretty non descript but you know how those horses are. They're not really looking as much as listening and I'm sure there are lots of noises there.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005422562901601859.post-39760180624131685942011-04-14T19:44:37.612-04:002011-04-14T19:44:37.612-04:00Way to hang on Cowgirl!!!!

Sounds like you had a great day with Val and I love the picture of him looking back at you with his approval of a better saddle placement.
