Oh, yeah the last few miles seem to take for ever. I remember before I knew how to time rides, we'd be out and someone would say we've only got about 3-4 miles to go.....You think piece of cake, But hey, that's another hour at least.

OK - I'm gonna post this for amusement only.... it's an accidental movie I took yesterday on the trail ride. It's really easy on my camera to slip it into movie mode instead of picture mode, and I guess that happened yesterday and that's why my disk filled up.

What you'll see in the video at first is Bruce and Bob, and I think I've just taken their picture. Then I show the view in front of me, and I probably think I just took another picture. Then I drop the camera, and it's just dangling from my wrist by the strap.... you see my saddle bag on my saddle, my boot, Bay's neck, the grass, lol...

On the audio, I say first that it looks like a good "bear spot" (but we didn't see any bears yesterday) and then I apologize because they're trotting to keep up, I say "I'm trying to slow him down!" Bay was happy to be moving out. He'd been behind Bob and Kai for awhile and he likes to go first and fast. If they were easier for people to see, it'd be fun to do videos instead of pictures, of bridge and water crossings, etc.

Anyway, here's two links for the video. Download them to your desktop to play them, don't try to stream them. To download them, right click and choose "Save target as" and save it to your desktop. Then they should play in windows media player. If you have slow dial up, neither are probably worth the time, it's just an accidental video that I thought was funny.

Large file version - avi

smaller file version - mpeg
