Sometimes she waltzs right in, other days it's a real challenge. Luckily, the trail our backcountry horseman's group is responsible for is 1 mile from my house; I just ride her to the party!Rude1https://www.blogger.com/profile/11522916294076793563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-86515566536178427892010-03-20T15:40:26.722-07:002010-03-20T15:40:26.722-07:00Jessica: A good friend of mine rides horses, but ...Jessica: A good friend of mine rides horses, but has two pack mules. I've helped load them up, and it's interesting how they must be approached. Slowly, gently, with many soothing words. But it works. I think at some point I'd like to have a pack mule myself.Dave (aka Buckskins Rule)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07764864394651709866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-32287725156866934332010-03-17T21:00:28.660-07:002010-03-17T21:00:28.660-07:00Good for you and good for Smokey!

I sort of dream of horse-inhabited work parties (I did a lot of trail work in my youth), but I'm not sure we're there, yet.<br /><br />And can't you have mules and horses? That's another dream of mine. :)Jessica Boydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08205857670509918766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-58498820858171927442010-03-17T06:40:38.082-07:002010-03-17T06:40:38.082-07:00We're all a little out of shape after the long...We're all a little out of shape after the long winter!Gordon Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16772014586181361069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-44126180416478976352010-03-16T19:36:55.438-07:002010-03-16T19:36:55.438-07:00Lou, it definitely wasn't a party, but it was ...Lou, it definitely wasn't a party, but it was fun nonetheless.<br /><br />Andy, most of the mule riders want nothing to do with horses. I've just managed to figure horses out, no sense starting over.<br /><br />Buck, somehow I knew you would appreciate the name of the trail. Sadly, there were no spirits involved.Dave (aka Buckskins Rule)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07764864394651709866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-40903216363899315092010-03-16T12:23:15.076-07:002010-03-16T12:23:15.076-07:00...headed out to clear the Jack Daniels trail.

One old rancher told me "If you ever ride a mule, you'll never want to ride a horse again."<br /><br />Of course, I guess it's all personal preference. Sounds like y'all had a good day. Glad you enjoyed it.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7333690107350492364.post-13839395974295388912010-03-16T04:52:13.963-07:002010-03-16T04:52:13.963-07:00I don't think that sounded much like a party. ...I don't think that sounded much like a party.
