Since today started out as a pretty nice day we decided that it was TIME to do something outdoors. Our horses had just received a brand new set of shinny shoes so we headed up Wolverine canyon for a trail ride. I was a bit nervous about the whole situation. We had several possible things that could make our ride go horribly. First of all the horses hadn't been ridden since last fall, Lexie had never been on a horse ride, and to top it all off I was afraid that we may run into bad weather. Nothing was going to hold Ryan back. He was ready to get out, so away we went! As soon as we got on the mountain the clouds turned grey and the sky started to rumble. I was concerned but regardless we started up the trail. As you can guess, the horses did great, Lexie actually liked to ride, but Mother Nature had something else in mind for the day. We had only ridden a few miles, maybe five or so, when the sky suddenly opened and it started to rain. The truck and trailer where to far away so we hurried to an old abandoned house that we knew was close buy. We waited thirty minutes or so when we were rescued! We ride on private property and the owner had seen us head out. When it started to rain he came to our aide! I was so grateful, Lexie and I caught a ride back in his truck and Ryan rode the horses back in the rain. NOT WHAT WE HAD IN MIND!
little girl, BIG HORSE!
She just couldn't figure out how to brush his mane from way up there, but she didn't want to get down either.
Leave her alone, she's fine on the horse as long as its dry.
Two Socks wanted to be in the picture too.
She wants her mom. For some reason she thinks I hold her better.
