Cady the Cowgirl?!?!

Let me tell you a little story- our adventure to the farm!
So last week we went to my roommate's farm. Her family has somewhere around 16 horses and in the summer they hold camps where kids and adults come for a week and just ride horses! After living in the city for over a year and I haven't been on a horse for I'd say 4 years I was excited!! I have always dreamed of being a cool cowgirl. I did have my own horse for at least 6 years-but she was so relaxed you could do anything and she wouldn't care, somehow I didn't feel like a cowgirl riding her! Even though riding bareback is as cowgirl as you can get!!
Anyways as we got to this farm and were walking in the stalls..I found myself being grossed out at the crap that was getting stuck into my shoe..or all the horse hair all over my clothes..or just the fact that I now smelt like the barns. I think my dreams of being a cowgirl have been dashed...either that or the citygirl in me is taking over-is that possible?
It was a fun day riding through the hills of Switzerland on a horse! They ride english style here..helmet and english saddle-with.-completely different than anything i have ever done before! For some reason wearing a helmet takes the glamour away from being a cowgirl!

Look at us in our helmets..

Can you see the outline of the Swiss Alps ?!!
