We have lots of horses around here, but when I've taken my kids to pet them they get scared and won't.

Nice recovery, thanks for the sample drink! Got it Friday and hubby wants to try it after Mon's workout.

Hi Burt,

Been trying to add you as a blogger but having trouble with this darn site...

Tom

Tom - Cool. What you have to do is look in the address bar and type whatever is in between the http:// and the .fastrunningblog.com. So for me it is burt-mccumber. Thanks.

RAD - you know where to order more from :)

From allie on Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 16:03:25 from 174.23.238.75

burt - i'd like to order three dozen boxes of the do-si-dos.

thanks.

No can do allie. At least, not 'til I get some of that pie I missed at the turkey trot.

Great recovery-there are horses around here but i'm not sure I would want to pet them...I would be scared b/c they aren't my horses!

From seeaprilrun on Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 08:35:39 from 72.205.224.181

I bet she would love the petting zoo!(or loved it, whichever)

I used to live in a van down by the river.

From Burt on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 11:59:23 from 206.19.214.144

April - I am glad the owner didn't come out and shoot us. That's for sure.

April - (dejavu) - The reason we went for the walk was in the hopes that we would see the Galapagos tortoise. It wasn't out, but the horse was fun, too.

Scott - What the heck are you even talking about?

I thought it was funny.

From Burt on Wed, Dec 01, 2010 at 17:58:09 from 206.19.214.144

Sorry Scott. I remember you saying something about it on somebody else's blog (maybe Lily.) I'm sure it's hillarious, and I have every intention of watching it when I get home.
