I've never owned a horse, but I can if I want to, and that's important to me!
I bought my first horse property in 1993, I was so excited! Irrigated acreage, fenced, live water year round, it doesn't get much better than that! I just never got around to buying my own horse, and all of the other stuff that goes with it! Instead I boarded some horses for other people, and rode around using their equipment (cheaper and nearly as rewarding).
It would be better for me, (the owning a horse part) if my husband wanted horses, but he doesn't, he wants cattle and sheep. So instead of getting on a horse up in the mountains, I have to lug my sorry ass up the hills under my own power. This means that I'm burning my own hay!!
Now as I look around at all of that grass, I hate the thought of mowing or bailing it. I think we should get that darn fence up and then start looking around for a different type of hay burner. Then I could enjoy all of the other things that go along with being a responsible horse owner, it's not cheap, but it must be fun.
