Is anyone interested in horseback riding in PF? If so, I can add it to the agenda.

Here is an email I got with some details from a place I found nearby, Waldencreek Stables:

[QUOTE]Partner,

  This email should answer most the questions you have and provides you with
our current online discount coupons.  We look forward to having you and your
party join us on our Smoky Mountains horse ranch and encourage you to call
us at (865) 429-0411 should the information contained not answer your
questions.

  Our ranch has over 100 horses of various breeds, some full and others a
mixture.  Performing Western Weddings and gunfight shows using the same
horses our guest ride daily permits us to test our horses for certain traits
that are conducive to safe horseback riding.  We are located approximately 8
miles from downtown Pigeon Forge and 18 miles from downtown Gatlinburg.

  We are sending you some of our coupons in this e-mail, but be sure to
subscribe to our newsletter or visit our web site for more coupons/specials.
Our coupons and specials indicate times of day and any applicable expiration
dates.

Ages, children 5 and under may ride with an adult, free.  Children 6 and up
may ride by themselves with guardians written approval (guardian must be
present). We have a 240lb weight limit weight and height proportioned, if
you have questions please give us a call.

  Please check our web site for scheduled bonfire dates.  We encourage
everyone to register earlier in the day as the last ride has been fully
booked in the past and we wish not to leave anyone out.  Please call ahead
to check with our office staff for additions and/or changes to ride
schedules.  We host a big open bonfire supper with old fashion hayride and
gunfight shoot-out.  Don't fill your gizzards before you come because we'll
have some of the best veggies, hot dogs, chips, drinks and more All FREE for
our riders and overnight guests.

I have horses everyday at home, I'll be happy with some time without them...I'll pass but I will advise you guys to make sure to bring sturdy shoes or boots with heels....Boots were made for more than walking. Tennis shoes weren't built for stirrups...Your foot can slip through and you can get hurt.

No, no, Jim....these are the kind you put quarters in!

I'm wid Jim, tho..grew up on a farm/ranch, riding horsies and cows...not really an attraction for me, but it might be a good deal for some of ya'll.

Only ride Moose and Caribou's here, did sneek into a farm once in California when I was a kid with nothing to do.. My friends convienced me to ride a cow, boy I almost got killed, I'm glad the cow had horns to hold on to or I would of never made it? I still have scars where I hit the fence post..From then on I just drank the milk and never looked at a cow again..
