What used to be short sleeves are now long. And what used to be long days are now short. There is no snow on the ground, but I'm certain there's leaves. It's autumn and it can only lead to one thing --- Thanksgiving...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/be-thankful/2009/11/26/feed/ 17 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/the-benefits-of-hard-work/2009/11/25/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/the-benefits-of-hard-work/2009/11/25/#comments Wed, 25 Nov 2009 09:00:47 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=8869 by Raven | To lease Mickey, I work for his owner fifteen hours a month.

Whether it's warming your toes by the fire after mucking out stalls, drinking a steaming mug of hot chocolate after a freezing ride on your horse or pony, saddling your horse or pony up for a wondrous winter ride, or the smidgen of hope that Santa Claus will leave a very special present under the tree...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/be-wary-for-winter/2009/11/23/feed/ 25 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/does-that-taste-good/2009/11/22/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/does-that-taste-good/2009/11/22/#comments Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:09:14 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=8854 by Toppyrocks | Ever wondered why horses don’t go around eating poisonous plants all the time? That’s because they have a different sense of taste than humans. The food that’s good for them usually tastes good to them, while the bad stuff usually tastes nasty...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/does-that-taste-good/2009/11/22/feed/ 12 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/loping/2009/11/18/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/loping/2009/11/18/#comments Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:00:33 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=8713 by Miss Morgan | The feeling of flying, that moment when you feel like you're in a dream. Nothing else is important. Your hair is trying desperately to break free of your ponytail. The thud of hooves in sync with the beat of your heart fills your ears. The world around you is only faint to your consciousness...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/loping/2009/11/18/feed/ 23 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/timetable-terrors/2009/11/12/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/timetable-terrors/2009/11/12/#comments Thu, 12 Nov 2009 08:00:43 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=8700 by DianaLUV♥ | If you own/rent a horse and you have a super busy timetable, you can find it hard to squeeze things in. I am lucky enough to have parents who will give up time on Saturday mornings to bring me to my riding lesson, where I attempt to fill my desire of horses for the week ahead. If you have long school hours and extra activities (besides horse riding), then you may want to take a look at how to fit in an hour and a half or more for spending time with that special animal...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/timetable-terrors/2009/11/12/feed/ 19 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/alison-hart-intro/2009/11/09/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/alison-hart-intro/2009/11/09/#comments Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:00:08 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=7986 INTERACTIVE VIEW, an interview where *YOU* ask the questions.

I don’t like looking strangers in the eye and I sit by myself a lot at meetings. I don’t talk a lot to people I don’t know well and I tend to be really shy. I mostly let others take charge and I’m content to follow. Then I started doing horses...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/horsemanship/2009/11/09/feed/ 22 http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/cant-live-without-horses/2009/11/03/ http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/cant-live-without-horses/2009/11/03/#comments Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:05:55 +0000 GHC http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/?p=8019 by Carolina Cowgirl | There are some things you can't just live without.

Though always winning is not necessary, it can never hurt to get a few blue ribbons. This blog is mainly for the girls competing at their first show, which is almost always a simple dressage test. In other words, this is a guide to perform that training level test like you own it...]]> http://www.girlshorseclub.com/blog/all-those-ribbons/2009/11/01/feed/ 9
