Jeeezus I could hardly walk by the end of the vacation. I picked out one golden horse (honey) I think to ride all of the time. I'm sure the poor thing cringed every time it saw my fat butt coming.<BR/><BR/>I was bringing up the rear on one ride when I got left behind a bit. I'm having a blast just yelling my head off and all the riders up ahead stopped at the end of the clearing. Honey and I just came barreling into them and came to a sudden stop. The ranch hand chastised me for not controlling the horse better, but I just laughed. I told him Honey knew what she was doing far better than I did and she could stop when she wanted too... LOL...<BR/><BR/>They call me coooowww boy :-)Weshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11399853707178925175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5843653167115605408.post-32841712129024830582008-09-22T12:06:00.000-06:002008-09-22T12:06:00.000-06:00Laurel - I have rediscovered my inner thigh muscle...Laurel - I have rediscovered my inner thigh muscles. Ouch! If you and J ever decide to hit Alberta for a holiday then we can meet up for a trail ride.<BR/><BR/>Lily - We were out past Cochrane by about half an hour. I know there are some trail rides around Banff too though. I may have to look into it next year.Runner Leanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05920305723750242672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5843653167115605408.post-47522761913528149282008-09-22T12:01:00.000-06:002008-09-22T12:01:00.000-06:00That looks like a fabulous day!

I rode western then switched to english and jumped a little too. That was when I was 11-14. Gee, that means I haven't been on a horse in...ALMOST 20 YEARS! Holy crap!<BR/><BR/>You forget how much leg strength it takes to hold on to a galloping horse. Are you sore?<BR/><BR/>I have been DYING to go out and do some riding the past couple of years! I am so jealous! I would have LOVED to go out with you. It looks like so much fun! And the steak and marshmallow parts sound pretty good too!Laurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08623841732966475396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5843653167115605408.post-21143309373050899612008-09-21T21:50:00.000-06:002008-09-21T21:50:00.000-06:00What a fun idea for crosstraining :) Looked like ...What a fun idea for crosstraining :) Looked like an exciting day!
