My brother and some of his friends took a hunting trip on horses. One of his friends had a mishap in one of those stone filled streams and had to be carried out of the wilderness on lashed limbs.<br /><br />I could lunge the horse (he doesn't like that any better), but that wouldn't be as much fun as the bucking horse ride.Wisteriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01646131135706997373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21359414.post-24703655595812673782006-09-27T10:58:00.000-05:002006-09-27T10:58:00.000-05:00In the past, I've had a few warm up buckers.

The man said, "Even if you get so drunk you lose track of your trail group, the horse will get you to camp. If you fall off, he will wait."<br /><br />We haven't needed these services, but if I make to the Dixie National, I can be assured that the horse knows his way.
