I know Texas is a big state but I thought it would be nice to have a thread so Texas folk can communicate and get to know each other.
This can be a place of just getting to know each other, discuss our horses, share ideas, or knowledge, keep each other informed on events, functions, sales, news, etc.
What do ya think? Check in and let's begin!

Now think about all that tax money you will save.
Now saddle up and get ready to be pushed and stepped on.
Not to mention wait in long lines.
I do not shop at Walmart but would avoid the place like a pig farm today if I were you.
For those not informed Jews cannot eat nor can they touch a pig or pork products. Just so no one has to google. Shalom
She is put together very nicely - and has a nice balanced look about her. I can't see anything wrong with her. She looks lighter built. Are her parents light or heavy boned? Good lookin' filly - can't wait to see how she matures you are so lucky!
Why has no one shared their adventures at market day? How was it?!
The hay guys were really nice! They loaded the truck, tarped it down, and gave me a free bale! I gave them an extra 10 bucks though, they were great. Posted via Mobile Device

Man I got up and went straight to work changing out my daughter's furniture - UPSTAIRS up and down and up and down - me, my hubby and brother. Talk about a stairmaster workout! We even changed out the carpet and pad and changed the window framing. Talk about a busy weekend! We ain't even done yet!
COMPLETELY forgot to even go - didn't even think about it until 1 that afternoon. Friends even called my phone to remind me and I didn't even check my phone until Saturday night. I am such a loser!
I went, it sucked! Took less than 10 minutes to go thru the whole thing. The used saddles were more expensive thanthe new. Mostly knick knacks, clothes, too expensive tack. Very disappointed. But, my GF and I had a ball, despite the storms, 60mph winds, near white out with the rain. Stopped by a produce stand, got some fresh veggies/fruit (had fried green tomatoes for supper tonight! ). Stopped at the Wall's outlet in Cleburn (Cleaburn?) they were having a clearance. Everyone's getting Jackets for Christmas! $60-100 Jackets for $15-20. Got DH some insulated cover alls, $110, for $30. New welding shirts. Over $1000 stuff for $330! Teskey's in Weatherford was closed by the time we got there. But, just the time I spent with my friend, the laughs we shared, was well worth the trip.
I got a new Bosal with Machate at the trade show at the Ranch Round up for $85. The same one at the Horemans market was $350! :shock:
I'd like to thank the weather gods for that beautiful morning! I hadn't ridden in months because of the heat, but this morning was perfect! And my boy behaved beautifully.
I'm so sore! I was bucked off a donkey; how sad is that?! The one time I try and ride Trey midday and he fraks at the sight of a huge landing turkey Buzzard.
Well, I am dead tired. Friday I went to Zumba instructor training in Houston and we aerobicized and salsa-ed and rhumba-ed and merengue-ed and hip-hopped our rears off. Then all of the furniture and assembly and carpet and woodworking on Saturday until 9pm (plus and cooked up a mean/yummy batch of fajitias, homemade charro beans and homemade mexican rice and even more people came over) and then I got up and tried to commit suicide by going to the mall with my oldest daughter and now I'm a few hundred bucks poorer and she's got all the nice clothes...
it POURED RAIN last night for like an hour. We were going to dig out some of the drier parts of our pond, but this rain just set that project back a few weeks.
I bought her at an auction so never saw her parents. The previous owner said her parents were built nice but also said she was 12 months old...not! Go figure but that's the chance you take. Posted via Mobile Device
I sweated my butt off! I painted the stall doors, most of the barn, the fence, and added a new coat of paint to the deck just yesterday morning. Then I went with my sister and picked up and baled the last batch of hay we need for the winter. Then we got home unloaded and stored the hay. Then I mucked out all the stalls and add more water to the troughs. Next I dug out a hole for a new tree my mom insisted we plant…
Hey Y'all. As you can probably guess I'm from El Paso thanks to my username. I was born and raised here. I was a guest stalker for a few days before I figured out how to join this forum. Just incase you guys were wondering I graduated from *drum roll* Collorado State! Go rams! I also got a vetrinary degree (not equine) from my alma matter. I have two horses of my own Pardes a black Percheron/quarter horse cross and Taffy a Polamino Quarter horse. They are both living in my own 2 horse pasture in my backyard. (Plenty of room shockingly!) I can't wait for football season being from El Paso I'm a Huge UTEP (Texas Western) fan and have season tickets for this season. Hope they can pull an upset against Oklahoma (not a chance in a million years)
Welcome. I lived in Canutillo for 3 years when I was little (3 - 6). My grandfather was the prison psychiatrist at La Tuna Federal Prison in Anthony, and my dad was a prison guard there...
