Beautiful Day For A Ride

J and I took off Sunday for a 3 1/2 hour trail ride.  The weather was perfect and the trails were in great shape.  

Otoelene worked on being brave and went in the front for most of the ride.

We had 3 gates to open and shut.  They are hung and latched so they can be done from horse back.  Otoelene was great with them all.

J said this was the best Brother has done all year.  I attributed to the fact that I had ridden him to tune him up for the horse show last weekend.  

He just went right along with his head down and relaxed the whole time.  

He did take the lead through the range lands.

J spotted this hornet's nest along the way.  It was far enough off the trail to not be a bother. 

Another wonderful day out with the horses.
