Dear All,
So I have posted about bringing my horse along this year (and twice last year). I got lots of good advice from the group! I have had 3 good hunts and am thrilled. BUT tomorrow when there was a 3rd flight got rained out. There’s one Wednesday, then nothing til Sunday the 19th, one that Wed and the next. I have a really hard time getting off from work on Wednesday. Of course. I asked for this Wed-no. So dammit!
I don’t want all this great progress to be lost. The horse did better but he is still wound up-sweat literally dripping on the ground from his belly. So the times there is no 3rd what? I do know an endurance rider through FB-maybe she would let me go on a training ride? Hack out alone? The one person I found around here to take lessons from moved. There is another hunt with a 3rd flight about an hour and a half away.
Or just try 2nd. Though I think at least I’ll try to go on all the 3rds I can in January and reassess later. What do y’all think?
Here is a whine :lol:-I have joined this year as a social member (this is my long time hunt). Last year I joined as a full member and got to go twice-that’s an expensive little season. I am grateful that the Masters let me join later to see if the horse was going to be ok. And since I’ve used up my 3 social member hunts I am going to pay up. But dang I wish I could hunt more in 3rd or dammit go on Wednesdays. Stupid work!
Any ideas appreciated.
Regards,
Huntin’Fool
