me too. though it's required here since it is the state animal...I had a blast on the farm where I used to work...it was primarily training and showing but they stood a couple of studs and had anywhere from 5-10 foals a year. hard work but I learned a lot.

I learned to ride on a Morgan, not the saddleseat type that seems to be overtaking the breed, but more like the original Justin Morgan type. Is that the Lippit? I'm assuming you've also seen the movie "Justin Morgan Had a Horse"?

yeah i helped organize the library there as part of community service that my co-op barn did...I think they are thinking of relocating to the KY horse park for added exposure though.

I learned to ride on a morgan too...also had one teach me how to drive...and another teach me how to get run off with while driving LOL
