![]() Well, I think of it as a rodeo. He who stays in the saddle the longest wins....

![]() What makes this rodeo harder and harder to ride over the years is the fact that almost everyone I started riding with over a decade ago have been thrown, have thrown in the towel or have changed ponies. Have made friends with some newer riders, but miss my old riding buddies.
Almost gave up twice, once when Marine Velvet killed most of my herd and another when the dang barn blew up all over the living room floor. Lots of poop to deal with and dang expensive too. We riders are gluttons for punishment, eh? |

![]() I think what keeps us going is the thrill of a new build. You always say it will be better this time... and it usually is, but still not good enough. So, on to the next.
Yep, I'd say it's an addiction of sorts. |

![]() Well - as the mother of 2 daughters that show-jump their horses competitively, I say bring on the coral because no amount of money I spend on my tank could even come close to the cash we throw into the horses!! I used to think there was no better way to relax than by brushing horse and feeding it some treats - but now I find it just as relaxing to stare at my tank and over feed my sun corals!

![]() My wife has convinced me to come up with a solution and give it another try.
![]() That didn't take long, or much. I think what is appealing about this hobby is that it can be challenging, no matter your experience. No boredom or "same old, same old" here.

![]() As with anything, it's about learning and knowing how to ride your horse better. If you can't do that, then look for another horse,... that maybe costs a bit less, and is easier to ride.
