My yard is plenty big to play around in.I have friends we can go to near by, where they can run around free, on our days off.<br />I can go to Saratoga and get two retired trotters, always very inexpensive.They make excellent carriage Horses,are well behaved in public, and saves them from becoming glue. Most of the carriage Horses in NYC were retired trotters from the Meadowlands. My Horse's stable was on the second floor of an original stable house, long gone now, in Old Hell's Kitchen. We had to take the Horses up and down on an open ramp.The scariest part of the day. My house would be a Horse palace, compared to that.<br /> Then we can be THE most annoying presence on the truck rte,where I live , as I will begin to go shopping at the Big Box Stores ,everyday. I could run a shuttle for my neighbors , who don't drive either. I could go back and forth all day. The TRUCKS would hate that, as much as I hate TRUCKS going back and forth all day and night in front of my house,knocking the tea cups off of the shelves and shaking my poor ancient home to it's foundation.<br />That Greenport Bus in Hudson is terrible and it's near impossible to get a cab and return from anywhere, if time matters to you. We could pick up travelers at Amtrak and get in the way of O&G's Gravel TRUCKS. There are so many possibilities....Vincent, please be on the look out for a shay and a sleigh.Prison Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059050028975347899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-35879710942728957892013-09-09T07:37:30.476-04:002013-09-09T07:37:30.476-04:00So there's still hope that the Lone Ranger wil...So there's still hope that the Lone Ranger will come to town?<br />Who was that masked man?<br />Hi-oh Silver rides again.<br /> tmdonofriohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11370760970951114120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-85854956283763221022013-09-08T21:13:31.530-04:002013-09-08T21:13:31.530-04:00awesome - always wanted to cruise around town with...awesome - always wanted to cruise around town with a horse pulling my shay or sleighVincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548912912359709568noreply@blogger.com
