It's a pretty bad idea, although it's nice for when you're cleaning stalls because you don't have much to wash. Riders are immune to horse manure, anyway. It stops being gross after a while xD

Well I would think that would be obvious...

Haha, I think it's weird how gross girls at school think it is. It's not that bad, really.

Well, that just means they haven't actually been exposed to it. I mean, it's just solid waste. Yeah, it's kinda gross but at least you don't have to burn it for fuel like some countries do.

Exactly. And it's not that bad for smell, either, compared to, like, dog poop.

Maybe we should stop talking about horse manure....
So, how's Seattle? Never been there, the only places in Washington I've been to are Spokane and the Snake River Valley. (Went horseback riding there, it's BEAUTIFUL.)

No complaints from me.
Well...it's raining. Again. For like, the third day in a row. Seriously, I thought us being rainy was a steroytype...apperently not this year.
Snake River is glorious. Spokane is okay, but there's nothing to do there.

I kind of noticed xD I was only there for the airport, one night, and a couple of meals.
I rode a horse right into the river down in the valley. It was pretty exciting.

Yeah. You've seen it all then.
Sounds like dead fun to me.

It was. The horse was amazing too. One of the most responsive ones I've ever ridden. I might go out next summer or sometime and ride him some more. I was invited, but haven't had time money for a plane ticket.

Responsive horses are sometimes hard to find.
Well this is where having a Huxley would be good...

Yeah, though good luck getting that thing to fly without a big-ass ground crew. One problem with airships/beasts; lots of people needed to opperate it.

"Hey guys! Wanna fly a huge airbeast out to Idaho for me while I chill out in a stateroom?" It would work.
