1st Trail Ride at Jubilee this year!!!

Today at Alamar Acres, one of their mares, (Mary B) had a very tall, pretty filly out of their "new" stallion Hercules. I got my workout with helping the filly stand and find moms milk. However, by the time I left work, she was finding it on her own-shew, cuz I was tired! : ) I came home to happy, sleepy horses soaking in the sun. I walked into the pasture to tell everyone hello, but Missy decided to greet me with a loud nicker and perked ears. Seeing her walk towards me so excitedly made me feel very loved and I couldn't disappoint her so I grabbed some tic tacs out of my purse and soon had all the horses up by me wanting tic tacs! Who can blame them? Candy is good!

Monica and I got to ride at Jubilee State Park yesterday since it was so beautiful and the trails were actually open on a Monday! We usually go there on Mondays when the weather is warm and dry. Colty did great and seemed almost normal since diagnosed with navicular disease. I took Kitty (much to her delight, but to Missy's dismay) and she was super excited-jumping most of the creek crossings and ditches. The horses LOVE their job of trail riding so they are always really ready to go on their first couple trail rides, but I'm always REALLY ready to go too! : )

Below are some old pictures of Monica and I at Jubilee. However, we always seem to enjoy running through the creek bed below since there are no rocks. I had fun on Monday running Kitty in the water past Monica and Colty getting them (mostly me) wet. It was funny, although, Monica would probable tell you otherwise......hey, it was nice to be the one making the splash instead of the one being splashed! heheha!! Colty and Monica usually get me soaked, but Monday, we got them wet!



Riding buddies-the four amigos! :)
