   I am not a horse person but some family members are…You have to be very proud of yourself! My DIL says that the view looks different from between the ears of a horse. Before you know it you will be ridin’ the range checkin’ the fence and stock everyday!!!

   Congratulations! There is nothing more wonderful than a horse between your legs (including men, lol;), so enjoy!

   Wow, congratulations! What fun you will have now, “ridin’ the ranges, where good luck never changes, with foot in the stirrup you’ll gallop away”!
   (That is from an old song called “My Home’s in Montana” which I learned as a kid many years ago.)

   Good for you and thanks to Heather for the support. Oh, and thanks to Shortcake who proves that 2nd round draft choices can be great for the team.

   How wonderful! Life always looks better from between a horse’s ears. Congratulations on the first trail ride out on Shortcake!

   Looks like you also had the help of a certain burro along the way.

   How nice that will be for getting around the farm. (I’ll take a horse over an ATV anyday.) Hope to see lots more pics with horse ears in them!

    I always knew Shortcake had it in her – and you too. Beautiful day to go riding.
    At first I thought when I read the title that you and Morgan had gone riding together. Has she been riding Zip too? Was Heather on Zip? How did she work out?

    Your saddle blanket is just perfect.

    Did Pokey and Jack go, too? Was Zip a good girl, too? Hugs to Shortcake, and to Heather!!

    Congratulations!!!! I so envy your big property to ride on. We have to trailer our horses to state parks to ride. We did go horse camping this weekend though and had such a good time. We took our 4 month old Chesapeak Bay Retreiver for her first time on the trails and she did really good. I love having a dog on the trail to keep deer, turkey and other things moving ahead of us so they don’t pop up right under our horses nose and cause a wreck. Soon your woods will be ablaze with fall color and you will have a hard time staying off that horse.
