Back in the Stone Age when I went to high school, my favorite subjects were English, history and home ec.

I love crabmeat

Last place I vacationed was Nags Head, NC

I currently have six horses (my horse Sage died of an aneurysm a few weeks ago)---I am looking for a seventh one.

I wish I could take my six horses and mix them together so I could come up with one perfect one. I wish they were a little more dead broke---actually, I need to get more confident---the horses are fine.


I wanted a regional forum so I could actually meet some people in real life maybe and so I could hook up with some regional stuff that was going on.

I live in the Williamsburg/Newport News area.

I tell all I live near the beaches and Busch Gardens.

I am originally from Germany (came to the states as an almost 4 year old). I am from the Stuttgart area (believe it or not)---amazes me how small the world really is.

[joustinggirl]

We love Pierces Bar B Que! And The Grate Steak in Norfolk. My husband graduated from ODU.

I visited Hiddleburg, Augsburg, The Passion Play town, can't spell it. All the crazy kings castles.

I would be very interested in some of the horsemanship siminars that I know go on around the state, but I find out about them too late.

I am also looking for a barrel horse. In the end I will probably end up just going to a trainer to get one.

[crittermom]

Love Pierce's!!! There used to be a pony on the premises many years ago. J.C. is a horse person. (owner) We have quite a few cow horses around here---including barrel horses. Does he have to be super fast or are you wanting something just to play around with? One of my former students has one for sale and offered to sell him to me LOL----me, on a barrel horse

[joustinggirl]

I would like something to be competitive, but there are so many divisions. Could he fall into any of them?

[crittermom]

He's 10 and 16.1---saw where you are looking for something younger. I can PM you his info. as described in the horse trader if you are interested. I've never seen the horse. Let me know.

My husband and I are Fort Defiance grads!! How is Bonnie at Englemans Western Wear? I guess it might be called Engleside now.

[BeverlyM]

I posted this in the wrong place earlier I put it under the chat forum..No, I don't know the crawfords, I don't live in Mt Sidney that's just my address. I live on a back road out in the country...I never go to Engleside so I don't know how the person is you're asking about...I've only been in there maybe 5 times
