Friends and Horses

I got to take two of my girlfriends from work to meet two more girlfriends for a ride at Black Creek Ravines on Saturday.


Karen got the pleasure of riding my Appy mare, Dixie and Martha got to ride my daughter's mare, Maybe. They both have ridden quite a bit in the past but not recently. They were a good combination with our horses and they really seemed to enjoy themselves.


Chele and Mustang met us for the ride. Chele was riding her mare Dawn, and Michelle was riding Chele's other horse Ranger. (You may remember that Ranger is Stylin's 2005 son) He has grown up to be a nice horse - he'll be 4 next month. That's Ranger on the left.Here's Karen, Martha and I posing. Maybe - the horse in the middle - is Stylin's 2000 daughter. It's really nice to be able to keep up with two of Stylin's progeny. She did have one other filly that was sold by her original owners; we've seen pictures of her, but don't know the people that own her now.

We capped off the ride on this beautiful day with a cold brew - what a way to celebrate life! Good friends and good horses!

That creek is a great place for a colorful photo. I had to take a second look at the photo in the blog before this - the one with the paint and the striped pad - looked like a zebra or something!

I think that is great that you can see how her foals have grown. And it always makes me so happy to see the foals used. Loved and ridden!! So wonderful. And her foals grew up to be really nice!! It looks like you guys had a great ride. I love the trails over there.
