“I’m back in the saddle again. Out where a friend is a friend…” The theme of Gene Autry’s song is simple. On your horse is where you’ll find your friends. More than 70 years later, the message still rings true. Those who know this better than others are the amateurs who have returned to the all-around pen after a 20- or 30-year absence. Despite industry changes in style, specialization, and show clothing, these ladies are loving the experience of being back in the saddle again.
