I can get anyone some cholla spurs for free.  Scooter
bolted BIG TIME with me the other day and I thought I
was a gonner.  When I finally got him stopped after 8
long seconds of riding, I found a cholla stuck to the
heal of my boot.  To you non desert riders, that is
the nastiest cactus in the world.  It sticks to you
like glue and is very sharp.  We carry picks and combs
in case they get on the horses legs.  I don't blame
him for taking off. Ouch. But I am kind of proud and
happy for staying on.  It was like a viscous circle. 
The more I tried to stop him the more I probably
gouged him.  Lorraine

 Happy Southwestern Trails
