Draper's seroma came back the next day. I have given her 3 weeks off. Now the seroma is just a hard knot of scar tissue. I hope it continues to resolve and remodel back to a normal shape. But because she wasn't ever favoring it and it was getting smaller, I decided to do a little light riding with her last night.
I thought she did super.
Then today, J suggested a trail ride. Well, I'm all in on that.
I was surprised to see this wild lily. After this one I did see a couple more.
There were some strange rock formations.
We also tried a couple of new trails we had never been on. It was an adventure not knowing where they would end up. We didn't get lost, but we ended up riding for 5 hours. It was a beautiful day with mild temperatures and low humidity. Plus, the horses were very well behaved.
Then I had this awesome purchase at the Surplus Store yesterday. I had been looking for a wide brim hat but everything around here was just cheap and ill fitting.
I was in the Surplus Store and decided to check out the hats while I was there, and found this beauty. The website (HERE) says it is handwoven palm and sells for $39.99. I got it for $3. The tag said $5 but I had only taken $3 in with me. When the cashier asked if I was ready to check out I said I needed to go the the car and get more money unless she would take $3 for it. Sure, no problem. Loving my new purchase.
What a nice horse.
ReplyDeleteWe used to see tiger lilies when we were kids here in the Kootenays but I haven't seen them wild for a long time.
I hope all works out with Draper. It looks like you had another nice trail ride. Nice surprise lily.
ReplyDeleteI love that hat - what a great purchase!
