Craig:<br><br>Your comment about getting out of the stirrup reminded me of my one and only time on a horse. In my case the problem was getting into the stirrup.<br><br>It was during my honeymoon in the Poconos. We went to one of the many horse farms in that area that offer rides. We arrived as a tour was about to begin so the majority of riders were already mounted. To my horror they brought out the largest, tallest horse I have ever seen. The attendant brought this brute over to me and instructed me to put my foot in the stirrup and swing myself up. This was pretty funny to me as I am only 5'6" (scottish genes) and the stirrup was level with my sternum. They had to bring us both over to the fence so I could climb up!<br><br>It was pretty fun after that. Maybe I'll try it again.<br><br><br>Chris
