I had horses growing up and when I went to college, I didn't have time for them.  Well, I have been thinking for sometime that I would like to get another one.  I also decided I want to get a breed that I have wanted for many, many years.  I wanted a riding draft horse.  So, I talked to a lady that has two grey Percherons (a breed I have researched and really like.  I even went to the head of the breed associations house to visit with with their horses.) and I went today to ride them.  I was okay till it came time to get on the boy and then I got a little nervous.  You have to have a step stool and after stepping up on it, I had no problems getting on the horses.  We didn't ride long but it was enough for my first time in many, many years.   So, I had to share that exciting moment.  I will try them out again before I make a decision.  I also have a lead on another boy I want to try.   Jennifer
