Any greeks who horseback ride?
Just wondering if any of you out there horseback ride? I used to show jump, cross country and dressage, but have been out of it for about a year because of school. I owned an arabian mare for three years: 15.1 hands, bay. I have just been too busy, but I miss it terribly!

for the record, the president in 1980 at the time of the olympics was Jimmy Carter. Ronald Regan was elected later that year. Nixon was pres, in the late 60's.

I got a horse for Christmas one year when I was nine, but I have to say I did nothing fancy with him, just rode him around

Man James! I wish I could say that one year I got a horse for Christmas!!!
I was in horseback riding lessons, but that didn't go to well as I was thrown off a whole bunch of times! Yet, I still fancy myself as a rider and go on those trail rides whenever I can!

Actually Nixon was pres. from '69-'74. Sorry, I'm a geek about stuff like that.

Thanks!  That's about what I thought. I knew he was president when I was born. (69)

No prob. I was afraid I might have sounded like a smarty pants. I can do that sometimes.
