i went for a ride today and got some horse and pics of the pond at our 'lunch spot'

Glory, my friends horse


my Angel looking sleepy






this is the pond behind the aqueduct.... on the right side, probably by that really bright red tree is where our lunch spot is


still looking in the same direction, only at the shore


across from the spot, there is an island


and looking back to where the first pics was taken (on another day). thats the big aqueduct, bigger than it looks


annnnd to the galloping part these are the sand pits from my other post. i wasnt going my fastest, but it was still fun!



and then my friend took her turn and before she made it all the way, Angel started cantering off, and Glory took a sharp turn and my friend fall off. (ignore me asking what happened.... )



its always an adventure

[Casey]

lol that looks like so much fun you're so lucky!!

[Shelly]

I was fun! Except for Angel taking off on me my abs hurt today, I think cantering in half seat makes them work more than sitting to the canter. I wish I could ride everyday

[Casey]

she took off on you? lol

[Shelly]

thats what happened in the second video in less than a second i was grabbing the reins, my crop, and making sure not to drop my friends iPhone! Angel kind of cantered in a circle and i stopped her, my friend got thrown off because Glory made a sharp turn and put her head down. in the course of the video, my friend had already fell, got up and was walking after glory who took off to eat grass things happen fast with the horses! one second every things good, the next second your on the ground and the horse is no where in sight yet we still have the guts to get back on the rest of the ride was good, when we stopped at the lunch spot, we watched the videos and laughed

[Casey]

well there's that phrase "gotta get back up on the horse" haha

i've been bucked off a horse as a kid. still have no problems with riding them.

i've ridden an elephant as a kid

[Shelly]

I haven't ridden anything but a horse, but I would love to ride a camel though

[Casey]

i've ridden a sheep as a young kid lol he let me ride on his back as he walked around the pasture. his wool was so warm to snuggle with. i miss him

[Shelly]

i feel like youve told me that before....

i think its safe to say that sheep riding is a real sport- look up images of sheep riding, it seems pretty popular!
