So Wot's your addiction


Recommended Posts

It is believed that the forerunner of the Lipizzan was bred in Carthage, more than 2,000 years ago. The Carthaginian stock was bred to the Vilano, a sturdy Pyrenees horse, and with Arab and Barbary strains. The result became the fabled Andalusian of ancient Spain.

Is he not gorgeous..I prefer the darker colors..bold and rich..

**Raises hand** YES, Halloween! The bestest of holidays.

Weel, you guys and your big horses are fine, but I'll stick with me Arabs. Quick, graceful, run all day, and too smart for their own good! :lol:

oh I fell in love with an Arab once..gunmetal gray named Caliber..a real charmer he was, but his lip was messed up, had caught it in the gate.

We have had a few arabs, They are very smart, but all the ones we had were clumsy.

However the smartest horses I have seen so far have been the mustangs..my mother has adopted three so far and they are calm, very sure footed, thick bodies and very intelligent..

But still will stick with my andi's..only cause I cannot have one...

I'm sure each breed has its best and worst... I had a thoroughbred for Rev. War... he knew and understood every drum command on the field... at one drill, we charged a group of Brits who had bayonets charged... I let him do his own thing... he galloped right up, stopped at a safe distance then walked forward and knocked the end of the gun with bayonet out of the way and proceeded to push his way through the line... NOW THAT was some animal!!!

I agree. People all have their own prefrences to their mounts, and each has good and bad qualities. I would settle for a warlander.

Im addicted to a good thunderstorm with a lightning show.

Ooh, Syren, we need to find a good place park, grab a fine drink, and chat. We have too much in common! I LOVE thunder storms. The most awesome one I ever watched, was from the rim of the Grand Canyon. The storm was down in the canyon, and we looking down on the lightning. Very kewl!

My husband and I like to go to the coast if a storm is predicted, and hang out on the boat. (Safely moored, of course), and ride out the winds and rain, thunder and lightning. It's grand!

Oooh - I LOVE watching thunderstorms. There was a terrific one off the coast of Jamaica that I watched for hours.

And I'm partial to Arab/Quarterhorse mixes. You get the gait and smarts of the Arabian with the responsiveness and turn-on-a-dime ability of Quarterhorses.

Thoroughbred/Quarter is a great mix as well... get the looks and size of the former and the brains and great nature of the later...

In another lifetime, I owned a triple registered buckskin, quarterhorse, Smokey Fleet, that I showed western Equitation, western pleasure, halter, color classes, trail obstacle courses, gymkana and a host of other events and won a whole lot of ribbons, crystal ware, goblets etc.

Tonight it would be Grand Mariner in a fine Baccarat snifter (plundred of course) and a slice of dark cherry cheesecake, with dark chocolate drizzled on the plate...sinful! :lol:

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help....

Her reputation was her livelihood.

I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice!

My inner voice sometimes has an accent!

My wont? A delicious rip in time...

In the Fall Raspberry Hot Chocolate and this seasons new boots. At least two pair.

In the Winter my Down (winterman) comforter. The rush of airside snow ops at the airport and of course Christmas.

In the Spring Washington DC in April and smores outside on a fire

Inbetween? Ya just never know...
