Riding any style

Posted via Mobile Device

OK, so that's us :) Many years ago


And recent photos of us with borrowed saddle

This thread is going an a great direction IMO, hope it keeps growing.

Candid, relaxed, working, days outings, fun, dissheveled, pride, joy, cold, hot, windy, country roads, arenas, back yards .... ordinary riding **.

MHFQ - I appreciate your words on NH as a coined phrase applied to previously used training techniques. Is it similar to tissues being around longer than Kleenex, but Kleenex is the more commonly used identifier? Or Coke for colas?

More riding pics please - get on your horse and smile.

Anddanky, I don't have any of me riding because the last one I took was so discouraging for me to see because I am fat, old, and it was winter and I had tons of clothes on which made me look actually freakish. But I'll see if I can get one tomorrow, going to the barn. Cheryl

Good for you, would love to see both pics, new and winter.

Been fearful of camera's myself for years, just now coming out of it and not because I'm any younger and thinner. Only having lived longer.

Wonder how long it takes to really 'grow up'.

LOL, are you sure that ever happens? I'm pretty sure I deleted the winter one from two years ago, but I'll see if I can find it. I am feeling braver now after seeing this hasn't turned into a beauty contest but people riding and enjoying themselves!!!!!

I think it just might be! There are things about the current NH movement that I thoroughly like & use and things I don't as well but that goes with all training styles. If we could all find that middle ground there wouldn't be fanatics or haters, just horsemen.

Laughing about not wanting to be in photos. I hate to have my picture taken and generally am behind the lens to avoid it I'm glad it's not a beauty contest either...I'd never post a pic if it was!

LOL, MH, it's nice to run across fun threads isn't it? And I'm having a great time putting names to faces, well except at my age, you forget again in about 12 minutes!!!!

OK, I posted some English photos. I have another side to me, though....
