*You Know You're A Horse Person When....*
...You pull a $17,000 horse trailer with a $1,700 pickup truck.

...You seriously consider trading your 1994 Buick for a 1986 Diesel crewcab dually pickup truck, even swap.

...You dress like a lawyer on weekdays and someone who needs a lawyer on your days off.

...You buy duct tape by the case, and carry rolls with you wherever you go.

...You realize that finding a horse shoe truly is lucky because you've saved ten bucks.

...You have saved five old left rubber boots "just in case" and another right one has sprung a leak.

...Your children have everything they need to become Olympic equestrians --Except wealthy parents.

... You'll drive an hour in a snowstorm to ride your horse, but God forbid you have to drive 1/2 hour to a friend's house for dinner.

... You walk as far back from the family vehicle as you can get in fear it will turn around and kick you.

You STILL know you're a horseperson when...

...Your six year old brother tells everyone that he's going to be the "ring steward" at your aunt's wedding!

...Your friends no longer ask to get together with you on a weekend afternoon because they know you'll say -- "I can't, I have to ride."

...You consider a pristine golf course as a waste of good pasture land.

...Everytime you drive past a road construction sight you think what nice jumps the barricades would make.

...When after arriving at the barn and finding the indoor being watered, you go ahead and ride in it anyway. What's a little indoor "rain"?

...When your horse gets shoes more often than you.

...When your boyfriend complains that you love your horse more then you love him and you answer: "And your point is?"

...You patch your rubber boots with duct tape and slog through knee deep mud to get hay to your horse, who has commandered the ONLY dry spot for miles.

...You get up at 5am every morning while your in college, drive 10 miles to the barn, feed, muck stalls, ride, and rush back to your 10am class smelling like a barn without complaining.

   You Know You're a Horse Person when no one wants to ride in your car because they'll get sweet feed and hay in their socks and purses...that's ok because then you'd have to rearrange all the tack to make room for them, anyway!

...You are totally grossed out by human hair in the sink or tub, but don't mind horse hair in your washer, on your clothes, in your food...

   So, you know you're a HORSE PERSON WHEN you look at all the piles of laundry sitting next to your Washing machine and most of them are breeches, horse blankets, saddle pads, etc... plus you don't even care about the horsey hair residue that will be left in the washer/dryer.

...You say "whoa" to the dog.
