> Hi there. This sounds like it could be a great experience, and I hope you do find a place that works well for you. I am afraid I don't know of any specific place to recommend, partly because I don't know where you live. However, I did just want to point out the fact, as you are probably already aware, that under federal law any place that gives horseback riding lessons is obliged to make reasonable accommodations in order to be able to instruct you. Of course it is up to you and your comfort level if you prefer to take lessons at a place that caters to blind people specifically. But please don't otherwise limit your search to such places just because you think that you don't have a right to attend any given horseback riding school. And not that I could ride a horse any better than I could Pilate a Zamboni, but I would sure think that a capable horseback riding instructor who is accustomed to dealing with a cross-section of the general public would be able to tailor lessons to a writer without site without too much difficulty. Anyway, I do hope your search bears fruit. Happy writing! Best regards, Andrew
