My Thighs!!!!!

Yesterday I went and worked a couple of horses for my boss and thankfully I didn't rain on me in the process. First I rode a Clydesdale, Loomis, with just a bareback pad for about an hour. Then I rode her quarter horse, Larry, complete with saddle for another hour. Riding Loomis is what killed me. Do you know how hard you have to squeeze with your knees to hold on while this 1 ton horse is trotting and cantering around? And further more, do you know how much you use your inner thighs just to walk?! I'm practically crippled and I have an intense class tonight. Advil here I come!!!

    I feel your pain, girl. That's why I don't just hop on a horse and ride for a couple hours . . . especially bareback! :D

    Oh well, I hope class went well.
