In a Nutshell

Small groups gallop through Audubon Park on horseback during guided trail tour

The Fine Print

Horses and humans have worked together for centuries, transporting goods, fording rivers, and sharing the blame for the fall of Troy. Bond with the noblest of creatures with today's Groupon: for $25, you get a 2-mile guided horseback tour through Audubon Park from Cascade Stables (a $40 value). All participants must wear a helmet or sign a helmet-refusal waiver. This Groupon is open to those 8 and older.

Cascade Stables' well-versed staff leads small groups of equine enthusiasts (eight people per tour) along guided tours through the picturesque surroundings of Audubon Park. Saunter along sun-soaked trails and under verdant oak trees, glimpsing nearby lagoons as horses narrate the history of the area through four-part neighing harmonies. Riders need to wear flat, closed-toe shoes and are encouraged to don long pants.

Cascade Stables

Though Cascade Stables opened a new facility in 2006, the center’s rich history of horsemanship and horseback riding dates all the way back to 1981. Over the years, the stable’s instructors have been training fledgling riders in various equestrian techniques, helping youngsters achieve dreams that range from serious, such as competing in officially sanctioned contests, to simple, such as grooming a horse so that it may one day appear on the cover of a romance novel.

Groupon Says

The Groupon Guide to: Seabirds

Not content to be merely the masters of the sky, many semiaquatic waterfowl also dominate much of the coastline. How many of these noble seabirds can you spot?

Pelicans: Identifiable by their bucket-like jowls, which are typically used to scoop glimmering fish from the ocean or responsibly hold car keys for beach-goers who plan on having a few mai tais.

Penguins: Since they’re flightless, these birds only use their feathers for insulation, which allows them to survive for hours in the deep, icy vacuum of space.

Flamingos: In addition to posing for the original sketches of the question mark, flamingos lend their likenesses for plastic reproductions that allow you to quickly figure out which of your neighbors you hate.

Ospreys: Ospreys frequently appear on lists of waterfowl, and are most likely very beautiful. They probably eat fish.

Are question marks really patterned after the curved neck of a flamingo?
