Wow! I love those ferns on the trail. They are HUGE! I'm glad Bay got to feeling better, even if he was a little wired. And Cyn is just a good 'ol girl who just seems to take in stride anything life sends her way. Glad ya had a good ride.

I'm riding at a new place tomorrow. It's called Little River Canyon. It's supposed to be the deepest canyon east of the Mississippi. I'm taking Blade for my friend to test drive before she buys him and I'll be riding Bluebell. Y'all wish me luck. This'll be the first time she's been out on a trail since she was a 3yr old, and maybe ever (she's 9 now). This'll also be my friend's Husband's 1st ride since his heart attack and by-pass surgery in March, so pray for us. He's been wanting to get back in the saddle so bad so we figured this'd be a good one for him. Just us, no pressures, we can go back whenever we want. We're just gonna take it slow and do mostly walking. It'll be a 2hr drive for me so I'll have to get up early. Pictures will be forthcomming on Monday.

Oh, and I did get pictures and video of the breaking rig I posted pictures of yesterday. The poor horse looked pretty wasted by the time I got there. I think he'd been working him with the brake on for about 45 minutes. This was the horse that broke down a tubular steel round pen when he first started working with him earlier this week.

I'm off to my Husband's company picnic in a little while. It was one of those where they said to him, "You WILL be there won't you?". It's ok though, they're giving away some really nice door prizes (a 42" plasma TV, digital cameras and camcorders, computers, IPODS etc) so maybe we'll win something. Talk to ya later...

Good luck and lots of prayers for a good safe and pleasurable ride tomorrow!

I didn't know you were selling Blade!

Oh I hate those company picnics.... ;~D Especially when they are on a weekend. If they want to require me to socialize with co-workers, the least they could do is not invade my personal time to do it.

I would like to see pics of the rig thing.
