If you saw the movie, "The Bucket List", you got a great idea of making a list of things that you want to try before you die. I guess dying is not a very good subject...so we will say a list of things you want to try with your horse in your lifetime.
Every horse owner has a dream of doing something different with his or her horse...maybe just once..but you want to try. What are ten things you want most to try with your horse? Write them here even if you are dreaming wildly! Here are mine:
- I want to compete with my Poncho in a low level dressage class
- I want to make Poncho do his tricks for a crowd during the middle of a show
- I want to ride one of my horses, I don't care which one, along a beach
- I want to run cross country and jump random people's fences
- I want to lay down in a field of clover next to my horse while he rests
- I want to go to a horse campground and spend a weekend with my horse
- I want to take Tuff Guy to a National Finals Rodeo and win the barrels
- I want to learn sports massage for horses
- I want to dress Koda up in a unicorn horn and ride him through town (because I doubt Poncho would try that!)
- I want to have my horses in my own barn, on my own property so I can spend much more time with them (although the boarding facility where they are is fantastic)
Some of these things are silly and will never happen probably, but you never know. Some of the others are definitely attainable and some are kinda iffy, but may happen with some hard work and perseverence.
What are your ten bucket list wishes for you and your horses?
