....And buy a horse or 2 so you can ride as often as you want. 2 of them would be better since you and Saralisa or a friend of yours can ride together.

BTW: horses can be often boarded in a barn thst offers riding lessons or trail riding. If you made the horse available for the school and riding- they with charge discounted rate or nothing. Plus the horse is ridden and taken care of.

Oh yes! Great thinking, HALA! You remembered how much I love to horseback ride! Absolutely 2 horses, and maybe hiring someone to help take care of them!

When I was into horse riding, and did that rather regularly I used to take riding lessons. They had horses that belonged to other people, not the "school". As long as Owners allowed them to use their horses to be used for riding lessons and trail riding, they got very discounted fee for boarding and taking care of the horses. I was taking lessons for close to a 5 months and after 4 months or so, I could come, take horse for a ride for free as long as I took care of the horse and the stall after my ride.: brushing the horse, cleaning it, getting fresh water, and cleaning the stall. They trusted me enough to take the horse and just ride... There were beautiful areas - river valley, beautiful sites.

Unfortunate by the time I learned enough and started really enjoying the rides, the company I was working for moved me to another city.
