My husband wanted to try horseback riding. So he found a place called...and we went. WOW... we had an awesome time! They only go out with 4 horses at a time but we were the only ones today at the time we picked. It was so much fun!

So happy for you to discover this wonderful sport! I've had the opportunity to ride often since age 15 (nearly 60 now) and I've taught both my daughters. On Long Island, riding is so expensive, but upstate NY by my eldest daughter, it's only $20 each per hour. That's where I've been going mostly for the past 4 years. Still loving every moment of it!

20.00 that is awesome...we are paying 30.00 but I think that is well worth it.

Winston Churchill is credited with saying "The best thing for the inside of a man, is the outside of a horse" and I totally agree as I have ridden most of my life....So glad you had fun and hope you do it again some day....
