today's ride

today it was really nice out so My friend Debbie and I took my two arabians out for a nice ride. We rode in only shirts, which is awesome for november in Wisconsin. Deb rode my sorrel Blaze and I rode my pinto T. We checked out some state land down the road and had one of my girlfriend Betsy's cats follow along for the ride. Lily made it home safe and sound, she was waiting close to home for us on the return trip. We stopped at a harvested carrot field and gave the boys a treat. Did a little trotting but no cantering or galloping as Deb is on the down side of a accident suit and can't chance a fall.
Saw a couple deer and got to ride part way back in the dark. It was really balmy and no wind so we really enjoyed ourselves. We talked about how the boys are trained to respond to neck reigning and leg pressure. I let lots of people ride my horses so they need to be easy to ride so I dont' have to give lessons when I take people riding. Anyway, it was a beautiful day and we had a great time.
