Default New Rule For Nate

I'm announcing a new rule for Nate and hope all of you will second it - Nate is no longer allowed to ride horses. It seems he decided that jumping off a moving horse was a good idea and ended up with a broken leg this weekend. He's fine, but not moving about too well. Anyway, I think it's appropriate that he is no longer allowed to ride horses

Actually, not jumping off of large moving mammals sounds like a GREAT idea. So, yes sir, I whole-heartedly second that ruling!

Get well soon, let the leg heal. Don't move too soon. Be patient, I know about being in a cast. It's not fun.

Sorry to hear about your leg Nate! I guess we have to remember they call accidents "accidents" for a reason. Stay away from skydiving too?..........

Thank you all for the get wells What's the saying though...? Fall off the horse, get right back on. Well whoever thought of that, definately hasn't ridden this horse. This one just decided to take off full speed, and know matter what I did, he wouldn't stop (not very well trained yet). So I was stuck with the decision, hold on and hope i dont fall off, or jump off and be at least a bit prepared. Guess I should have held on!

You or the horse

Now if you were riding English, maybe, but Western???

Take care. I'm sure we can all come up with frugal ways for you to scratch under the cast!
