3/28/16 /Just the Three of Us

Things I saw, and liked today 

This very large lonely tree, just hanging out in the middle of a clear cut 

The most wonderful bridge, made safe for the ponies by the Enduro Club,, they are the bomb !!  :)

beautiful Powder <3

never ride alone with these two,,,, my homies :) 

Awh ,,, what a treat,, to end the ride with

6.5 miles did some exploring to, went across the Super Bridge and checked stuff out !!! 

3-26-16 Ivy's Ride

The first trail ride on Ivy ~ 

that is after she was taken off 

Crack Gograin !!!

Nice little 6.8 miles 

I talked Mel into coming with me, thankfully she could pull it off. 

Mel and Powder, :)

The weather was great, no rain, even a little warmer than what we

thought it would be. 

 Ivy lost a shoe, so we had to supply
her with a boot, but she did 
great !!  

Ivy, has been training in the arena for about 6 weeks, and she was ready for some real riding.  She did very well, other than loosing a shoe.  She went out front, and she followed at a nice distance too. 

All in all, she was quiet and calm, the whole way, 6.8 miles. 

We checked out the new bridge that the Enduro Club put in, WOW they did an awesome job !!  

Mel, got along with Powder great too, she did wonderful :)

Ivy was a little stink eyed at Traveler, but Trav must have gotten the vibe, that she wasn't wanting to be BFF's and kept his distance.  

3-20-16 1st Day of Spring

First trail ride in over a month 

Rainy day, wet gear day.. 

if we didn't ride in the rain,, we wouldn't ride at all... that is, here in western Washington.

Powder has been off for a little over a month, ever since she took a bad step into a pretty deep hole with both back legs.  I checked her out before we hauled out, and she was moving real nice and seemed very comfortable. Our ride was at the Mima trail, Equine Loop, very benign, very groomed trails, pony in the park easy. We kept it short, only 5.4 miles, it rained pretty much the whole ride, but hey, that is why they make rain gear !!!  ;)
