No ATVs on the trail you rise is a good thing. I wouldnt want to come accross some whilst riding.
I used to do conservation work on Ashdown forest and Pooh Bridge where All the Winnie The Pooh stories are based. It was about Half a mile form where I lived. In fact, thats where I met my late first husband! : ) We used to make sure paths were cleared and organise work up there to mend fences etc. We did Layed hedgelaying which is an old woodsmans way of keeping hedges thick and stock proof. It was fun, and a good way of keeping fit. : )
I've been busy moving the Basset Hounds into different runs. Both girls (Sassy Pie and Jessie May) are very pregnant and due very soon, so I needed to seperate them from Baxter (our male Basset). Unfortuantly in the move, Sassy got out and I had to run the length of one field to get her. I carried her back and boy did she weigh a ton! On trying to grab her to stop her getting out, I got a shock from the horse fence which is right by their kennels. OUCH! Right across my bare lower back! I don't want to do that again!
I have my camera ready for when the little ones are born, it is both girls first litter so I just hope that it goes smoothly. The girls are in very good health, but Bassetts are known for problems. Here is a pic of my girls again! (before they were pregnant).
