Default Hi Starr

This causeway, was a concern for the swimmers, and the homeowners around here. So.....water samples were taken and actually was cleaner that the water on the Gulf itself. Evidently any horse droppings are not hurting the causeway during the season. Horses are allowed in quite a big area, and actually the swimmers have other areas they can go in. There is an unspoken agreement that everyone agrees with. Nice to get along for a change. The horse owners do pick up after their horses on land.
This all did go before council. Therapeutic riding is good for the soul. I also did have to get clearance from my neurosurgeon. Maybe, just maybe the therapeutic riding places, would act on this idea, and find some homeowner with a big big pond near by. If you google up ponds, lakes in your area, there may be more water around than what is visible or known about to the public. I really do wish you could try it around your area. More fun than I had in 10 yearsginnie
