I'll ad just one more comment, at my age, 83, on a morning like this, you get yourself a "stump Horse", for those of you who are wondering what a stump horse is, its a gentle horse you can lead up beside a stump & will stand there, while with all of your aches & pains, you can crawl up on that stump, put your foot in the stirrup & swing into the saddle. The reverse works real good when alighting to the ground. This is only for those with the need to know & won't laugh at you.
How would you like to saddle up a horse & ride out for the day, to check on the cattle & some fence lines, with a thermos full of chili, & another one full of coffee. Been there & done that.
