I decided to risk life and limb and take my greenbroke horse, Tarik, out on the trail today.  Actually, it’s not so much that he is green as that I am not the most confident rider in the world.  However, my riding lessons have been going so well that I actually gave it a try.  We went out into the desert and rode up and down hills and jumped a few gullies and had a great time.  I did almost fall off once when Tarik decided to unexpectedly gallop up a steep slope.  Nearly tumbled off the back of him lol!

It was great to get away for a few hours and just relax.  Starting our farmstay business and caring for geriatric dogs and the day-to-day hardships of farmlife can wear you down.  A relaxing trail ride builds you back up.
