We had been hearing how horse friendly the town of Norco is (Horsetown USA) and wanted to check it out for ourselves, so we trailered there on a Friday afternoon. First we rode in a residential area and were impressed with the wide bridle paths on every street. The main street in town also has bridle paths on both sides and a special crosswalk button at rider’s height. We decided to go shopping at Thrifty Horse which has a corral in the parking lot with hitching posts. We tied up our horses and moseyed on in to shop. Our transportation remained surprisingly calm, switching their tails and standing contentedly, even with cars whizzing by on the street.

Next we rode to the Saddle Sore Saloon which also had a designated horse area. It seemed like we had gone back a hundred years or so in time. What a thrill to sit in a “saloon” with a Margarita, watching your horse look at you through the window!
