We got back about 45 minutes ago. I am dead tired but we had a blast. I had no idea there was such incredibly beautifull land in OK, let alone almost in my back year. Of course I ran out of room on my camera at the prettiest spot, but I got about 25 pictures. There was probably only about 25 people. We rode over there, and that took about an hour 10 minutes. Signed in, then went on a 2 1/2 hour ride, then back to camp for a lunch break, then back out for about 3 hours, then back to camp then the hour and 10 minute ride back home. Been awhile since I spent that much time in the saddle, but I feel great, and we got NO rain. Beth, the neighbor that took us to the starting point, quit the ride at the half way point, but I was pretty sure I could find my way home so we stayed the whole day, Jenny, Celia and I.
The people who own this ranch are incredibly nice. In their 60's. It's a working cattle ranch. On one place you can stand in 3 counties at one time. Any way, I'm going to go get the pictures loaded so I can post.

I am so glad you all had such a great time. I know that if I spent that long in the sadlle i would be walking bow legged for days! LOL
I was brave today and moved Sugar from one field to another all by myself. I know it doesnt seem like much but remember it was only just over a year ago when I was terrified of horses and wouldnt go anywhere near them!
She was great for me and patiently waited for me to close the gate before she moved!
I am trying to locate another farrier as we still havent heard back from the one who was supposed to call us : ( All of the horses desperatly need trimming and Sugar has a low split which I dont want to get worse.
I have also been browsing real estate, looking at some beautiful farms in the Ozarks. Makes me want to take a vacation now! : D
