Well, took another header. Didn't quite get clear this time, broken fibula and BAD ankle sprain. Lucky it wasn't worse, 1350 pounds of horse ain't to be sneezed at. More later, but I'm getting too old for this shit.

OUCH I came off more than once back in the day but never with any injuries other than my damaged pride. I had a horse that would trip over a piece of paper on a paved road but he never fell. I bailed out a couple of times when I thought he might but never got really hurt. Then I turned 75 and decided that I'd be in trouble if my luck changed so I quit riding. I walk some at Spaniel trials but I either have to start walking for exercise or give that up too. Tough decision because I'm stone lazy! Harry
