so... where to begin...!?
saturday afternoon I headed out to rocky. Got in just in time to saddle up my horse and get in on the ride that was just about to head out. Terri, Scott, Heidi and Blaine were all gearing up to go out. We did a nice afternoon ride in the sun, took some good pictures and of course fooled around a lot... After this mild ride we headed back, changed some horses around and headed out again. For more fun and games. AFter this one was break for dinner.
Dinner time also meant we must have a drink. Afterall what is a nice steak dinner without wine or rum or something right? Then came the Dragon Juice. Oh my. Thats all I have to say for that. It was now 8 pm and Heidi and I decided it was time to go snowboaring. We later dubbed this "hoarding" because it was snowboarding behind the horse. After multiple bails and almost getting run over by blaine and billy (billy is a horse) I managed to survive the board. Heidi's turn! She did quite well also. However, because we switched, I then rode Gracie who heidi had been on. I was her 4th ride (that means her 4th ride ever....) But with snowboard boots on, you can't get your feet in the stirrups. So I had no stirrups, no stearing (she's still green!) and no brakes... uh oh. to top it off I was the one wtih the bottle. So needless to say I drank alllloooottt of dragon juice and fairly quickly because i needed my hands! (which was a miracle to say I stayed on the whole time from the amount of booze I drank whilst riding gracie...) but I survived to ride again and more....! After a quick warm up we headed out at 11pm for our moonlight ride. I rode cash. What a fabulous horse! I love him, especially after all the shenanigans he put up with that night. We were out for 3 hours, getting back in to the house at 2am. However, for the amount of time we were out we really didn't make it too far at all... funny how that works... Possibly the booze to blame... :) oh well. it was fun! I managed to stay on... for the most part. However I did have a couple accidental dismounts from my pony. But nothing too serious...
sunday was spent partially recovering from a really sore body. But not a hangover! yeay! Terri, Scott and I sat out on the deck in the sun for quite a while. With a beer or two of course! We then managed to get motivated and headed out for a quick ride to shoot some promo video. Scott had to head out, so Terri and I went on a little adventure down the road. We paraded a ways down the highway and then down a side road. Had some cross country exploration. Trying to find gates in the fences to get home without having to go back the long way! but we succeeded eventually. Needless to say, hot tub and early to bed on sunday...
All in all good weekend. Got all 4 horses rode. No major injuries. and most importantly lots ots of fun was had by all!
I have a few pictures. Will post more and possibly a video or two when I get them from scott and Terri!
