Hello MN gurus! (long time lurker... just registered today newbie here)
I last owned a horse 25 years ago, and have recently gotten back into things, but the riding schools around here are a little lacking and I am just aching for my own again.
I want to ride in a school for at least a year.... to get back up to speed and to see if this is just a flash in the pan wish, and then will look to buy this time next year.
I am so terribly ignorant... what kind of money should I be looking at to keep a horse? Local, standard livery around here is about 90 a month.....very standard, out during the day, in a stable at night, doing everything yourself.
I'd be looking for a nice hack, that can do a bit of everything, nothing spectacular. Perhaps clipping in winter and hunting.
I'd be so grateful for advice. I miss having horses, but am worried about costs. :)
