  7. Awesome! I was looking at this book last night on e-bay. I think I might buy it if I don't win, which I probably won't cause I think I won enough lately (pair of ariat boots anyone?)

  8. Sing me up! I have been wanting this book sooo bad since I saw it on ebay but I was afraid to buy it without seeing the inside. Is it as good as the cover looks?

  17. Oooh! Pick me, pick me! Thanks to you Julie I think I'm going to take the plunge and try side saddle, albeit Hunter style. I'm going to attend a clinic in March so this book would be awesome to read before then.

  20. Please count me in on the book drawing. I missed a Side Saddle Clinic last year. I'm hoping the barn will be doing the clinic this year. I like to learn new things with my horse....The book will be a wonderful way to a start.

    Thank You Shari

  23. I had a copy of this book and it was stolen from me. Simply disappeared off the shelf. I would so love to have another one. If I do not win it; I certainly will come back and order it. I have had no internet since Thursday and came to the library to check up on stuff. Have a problem with alot of the photos showing up but the single show photo did and I think it is quite nice. The tenseness shows but compare it this time next year and see how far you have come!!!

  28. Just found your blog from COTH -- planning on riding sidesaddle for my wedding in April. Borrowed a sidesaddle (yes, it fits my horse), gotta find a long girth that fits, and then convince my horse this is a good idea. Probably the hardest part will be dismounting gracefully while wearing a wedding dress -- did I mention he's 17.1? The giveaway book would really come in handy right now!

    Oh, my email is synrgystyk@aol.com.
