Today's ride:)

I took some pictures of the road scenery as I drove down there....pretty good huh, taking pictures, doing 60 while hauling a horse:),,,uummm good, or stupid:)

This is a bridge I hate coming too because it is so narrow, and it seems I always meet someone form the other direction. I usually just slow down till I can go across by myself.

Corn field. I love seeing the straight rows of corn. Nothing prettier, IMO.

This is going across a bridge over the lake that the park I went to is on.

Inside the park looking at the lake.

I got there about 30 minutes ahead of everyone, so I gave Harley a massage, then saddled and waited on the others. He was watching for them too:)

Assorted trail pictures. I'll try to refrain from too many:)

I love Harley's ears in this one:). They were watching a deer and with a baby run thru the woods. That was what I was trying to catch when I took this one.

This place is full of wonderful hills to climb.

Great lake.... I never would have dreamed there was a body of water that big in Oklahoma!

Do any of the horse-approved areas have access to it? It's a blast to swim a horse.

oh - and I was driving down the road trying to take a picture last trip.... because Cyn was sticking her nose out of the window in the trailer, and her lips were just flapping like flags in the wind. I could see her in the rear view mirror, but I never caught her doing it at a safe time for me to click the pic, and I wasn't sure it would really show what I was trying to show ;~D

Looks like the ground is the same kind of red clay and big rocks you have at home.... is that common to the whole state?

Becky, wonderful pictures, glad that you had a good ride!

Well I'm back from the barn, and it was just terrible all around. I was looking forward to going beacuse I had a rough day at work and was exhausted, and I get there, and the snotty woman with the warmblood that she won't ride because she's afraid of it was there, and she was standing there with him with his legs wrapped, which I thought was odd. (Keep in mind I have NEVER seen this woman ride this horse, EVER. All she does is groom him.) So I go and grab the appy and come in the barn and such, and someone came in with a trailer who she greeted, and I said "Oh, who's that?" because I'm not familiar with everyone who's there.
So she looked at me and said: "GEE you're really behind the eightball today! The woman is coming to ship my HORSE!"

I just kind of gaped at her and said "Oh really? I'm ... sorry... I didn't see shipping boots on him."
She then said: "Oh god, I NEVER use shipping boots! They offer no protection at all! What are you talking about? CLEARLY you've NEVER shipped a horse before in your life."

"Actually," I said, I've shipped lots of horses and I've always used shipping boots."
"Well," she said, "REAL horse people don't use shipping boots."
I couldn't even come up with a comeback.
"Furthermore," she said, "I've shipped professionally with my ex-boyfried who was on the united state equestrian team, and he never used shipping boot either."
I almost kicked her in the ass. It RUINED my ride, and other things happened, and it was just terrible. Terrible.
