An open letter to HillyBilly Farms

Sometimes when I can't sleep at night, I compose letters (well, email) in my head.

To get closure with an old boyfriend?
No.
To revisit a childhood injustice with my mom or dad? No.
To cuss out a co-worker who richly deserves a dressing down? No.

My letter to HillBilly Farms
Hi guys. I don't know you, and know little about you other than what I read on your site. I'm writing to let you know that I'm a fan. Who knew that the equestrian community had a counter-culture? Just had to say, thanks for offering a counterpoint to a sport that takes itself pretty seriously. And keep it up.

Readers, may I direct your attention to the Hillbilly Farms parody at Jumping Clinic with George Morris. I wish I'd written that!



If you want to see their Web site, which has some good stuff (hunter Mad Libs, famous instructor quotes), not the least of which is 3 of the best corporate sponsors on the Web. Go to http://members.surfbest.net/hillbilly@surfbest.net/index.html.

  1. And here I thought I was the only one who stayed awake at night and composed emails. I'll have to go check out the Hillbillies.
