H is for Horse

Welcome to the 2015 A to Z Blogging Challenge! Each day for the month of April I will be posting alphabetically from A to Z and my theme is Wyoming.




Horses are to Wyoming as stars are to space. Abundant and beautiful. When you cross the state line, it won't take long until you spy a horse - running through a field, standing in a barn, feeding in a pasture, or saddled up for a trail ride. Wyoming has wild horses, too. They are found in various locations in the state. Get your camera ready.

Have you ever ridden a horse?

  1. I use to go horseback riding a lot in high school since I had a friend who had horses. I miss it even though the last time I rode a horse I fell off! :) Good luck with the Challenge.

    1. Christine: my granddaughter rides. She's 10 and has been riding since she was six. I've only ridden a few times as an adult. But I love horses for their beauty and powers.

  4. Yes a few times I have been able to ride. Once may years ago I had the privilege of riding ponies on a beach in Hawaii, a treasured memory. Thanks for stopping by to say hello during the challenge. Enjoyed my visit here. Maria

    1. Maria: I've never been to Hawaii. That would be wonderful to ride horses on a beach!

    1. They are pretty awesome. You have drive far to see them. I've only seen them once or twice. There are videos on youtube.

  7. Horses are such gorgeous animals! I'd love to see them in the wild.
    I rode a horse once as a child and was scared to death but I've always wanted to try again and learn to ride. Someday maybe.

    1. Julie: The first time I rode a horse was as an adult when our daughter was in Girl Scouts. The girls had a horseback riding activity and I went along for the ride. No pun intended. A while later, there were horse stables here in Cheyenne and I took the kids riding. That was about it.

  10. I've been horseback riding, and I think horses are magnificent, but I have to admit, they intimidate me.

    A friend of mine used to rope calves in the rodeo and I still recall how the muscles of his horse used to quiver in anticipation as it waited to be released from the gate. Beautiful animal.

    1. Trudy, yes they can be dangerous. My granddaughter rides them and she's only 10. She's learning to canter now. I don't want to think about her galloping! Images of Bonnie Blue Butler pop into my head.
