What happened here?
Is all conversation lost?

I just searched the entire forum. I even searched removed messages and could not find it anywhere. I've reported the thread in the TTTT section so that our tech folks can check it out. I do not believe it was removed by the horse forum. I hope a Gremlin didn't eat it!

Celeste I must second this one.
I felt a little lost and heart broken all of a sudden.

I am not involved in The Book of Faces.
This is about it for me except for an aquarium forum.

Time to Grow the Corn, I think this is back together.

I hope we get our old thread back.

Dawn, we are behind you 100%. Everyone was checking into the webcast frequently, and I even had folks watching at work that had never even sat on a horse before!!

It was the coolest thing ever! Such fun watching the posts come up as you achieved each checkpoint. Thrilling to feel a part of such an exciting event. WOW. You are an awesome rider and competitor!!

I am really thrilled that you were able to go and I can't wait to see the video of Tevis!!!

Don't know if we'll ever see the old thread again, but there were a ton of encouraging posts on it for you and all your buddies.

When I saw your happy grin in that RS shirt it brought tears to my eyes. What an honor that you would wear that shirt proudly for all the world to see. You are one very special lady, and I am honored to know you.

Praying you and Sultan & buddies have a safe trip home.

I'm on FB but I like to keep things separate. Farmer is on FB, I would not want him to see my rants LOL.

86 degrees today and when I went to feed, the water trough was empty. :icon_rolleyes: They are fed, watered and happy now.

Random thought. Would it be weird to change Nike's name if I came to own him? Nike is not my first choice in names LOL

I logged on when I came back to work. :eek: Couldn't find the thread. :eek:Thanks MR for starting this one over. That's what I intended to do. Strangely enough, all the "likes" from the thread also disappeared in our list of notifications.

We are truly a community, I couldn't imagine going without all of you. Isn't it a bit crazy to be so dependant on a virtual community?

If the thread was becoming too big, they could have removed half and leave the rest.
I'll miss the ones we lost for different reasons over the years. I felt we were still keeping them along with us, with their past contribution still available. Now gone? Country Girl who started the whole thing and dropped by to say hello and nothing else. CCG of course, Northern Star that I really miss (if anyone knows her name or mail, please share in PM).

Well, happy to be back on track.

Thank you guys so much.. it literally reduced me to tears. I feel like I let everyone, and most especially Sultan, down.

I actually had a huge, long 3-post story written about my week and posted it this morning.. so maybe I broke the thread.

And maybe that is the universe's way of telling me to shut up and get over it.. because my Tevis experience is one I will never forget.. and mostly in a negative way. I tried to downplay the negative that went on before the ride in the hopes things would work out.. but as always, the gut knows. And I knew on Sunday when I arrived we likely wouldn't finish.

If you are interested, I may try to re-post the saga later. Meanwhile, the universe sent me a consolation prize in the form of some breathtaking pictures. I have a ton to scan, but took a quick pic with my phone of these:





Sultan went up and over Cougar Rock like nobody's business.

I'm here! I can't believe the thread is gone! I haven't been here long but I love it. :loveshower:

Ph13 I did see your post about how the ride went and you have EVERY right to be ****** and upset! You did a fantastic job pulling things together, I'm sure I wouldn't have even made the ride. You and Sultan had an amazing ride, he must be quite the trooper with a lot of heart. Be proud of how you did and know that next time you will finish strongly! You did what was right for your horse and that is much more important than finishing!

OMG Cougar Rock! :loveshower:
PH, I don't know what happened and maybe you can share when you feel like it. But you certainly didn't let anyone down. You showed up and did your best and THAT is AWESOME. Certainly didn't let Sultan down, he doesn't know or care about the distance he did, only that you were there with him. We had so much fun following you, you can't begin to imagine how we all got infected with the Tevis Bug.
I hope you can look back and see some good in your experience.
Have a safe trip back and hug to Sultan and you. You are still my hero!:hug:
