horseback perils

manure in the making

in line of sight

 

the downside of riding in line

and trailside snacking on the way

 

step by step

the definition of yuk

on the soiled ground

 

the wretched stink that stays

long after the last ride ends

    I can smell this, Frank. I had a horse for a couple of years as a young teenager, and I miss it. I would actually LOVE to smell his “yuk” again right now. ๐Ÿ˜‰

      I remember every detail of that one rise–including those rear end deposits in action from the horse in front of me! LOL! Thanks, De Jackson! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Having to clean barns as a kid, I got pretty good at shoveling yuk.

    I’ve never been horse riding but I am familiar with the aroma of manure. It’s got to be easier on the nose than smelly cat litter. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Nice one Frank. Being an avid horseback rider, I can relate to this. that’s why farmers and ranchers wear those big boots!

    Yuck is all in the perspective. Perhaps it is brown gold to help make flowers grow!!
