OMG... can I just win the lottery so I can buy a big fancy horse trailer with living quarters? I'm a priss, I can't sleep in tents. I've spent a whole night going to the bathroom and vomitting because I was in a tent... I'm a wierdo.
I want to go on this, it sounds like fun.

I know what you mean about being a priss though, I am that way too, unless I really really want to do something, then I can rough it a bit lol!

Where is Springwood?? This sounds like a blast!! How much does it cost? It used to be Stuart Andersons ranch, it's in Thorp/Ellensburgh, the august ride weekend is $100, but includes all your meals and entertainment! The info is in the original post. The june ride is put on by AQHA, and is $125, meals inc. etc... They both sound awesome! Some friends from my barn went last august, and plan on going again this year. I hope to get there too...
