So I thought this might be a nice idea to get to know each other. There are lots of people here and so much talk about reptiles, but nothing about each other. This is the thread for you to post pics of yourself, your favourite activities, talk about your interests, etc. Anything and everything about you. Let's actually get to know each other, eh? I guess I'll start it out, but I'm sure I'll have more to post later.

Me:




My tattoo (and I look forward to getting more):


I love reptiles, but horses are probably my greatest passion. I don't have any pics of riding my horse, unfortunately. (Excuse my position in the first picture. I was attempting to recover from a back injury - never fully did.)



My love, Ace:



So now that I've gone on about myself and posted way too many pics, please, go on about yourselves.

Neither. I rode with an instructor who showed all over the East Coast for 6-7 years, but I'm afraid I'm just not that into showing. My place in the barn was to ride/exercise/train the horses that were neglected, untrained, or abused and get them comfortable enough to be trained by my instructor. She moved, so now it's just Ace and me having fun. I worked a tiny bit with jumping with him, but last summer was too dry to really get anywhere with it. So I've just been teaching him ground work, since he didn't even know how to lead when I got him.

The point is to get to know each other and such in this thread. Post away.

Is Ace in those last two pics?

Yep, that's my man. I have a million pics, but I figured two was all that I needed to post.

Thanks for posting. It is shocking that we don't have a 200 page thread here with people introducing themselves, LOL... I dig your horse hair shirt I guess it comes with the territory.

I was surprised when I didn't see one. I like getting to see people's stuff. By the way, that horse hair shirt says "SHUT UP AND DIE."
