Growing up in Texas, I was never very far from horse stables or barns! When given the choices of summer camps to attend, as a youngster it was always horse camp for me! So whenever I get the opportunity to ride these days, I jump at it!
So today I had the opportunity to ride the Blanton horses with Ms. Robin and Ms. Cathy! Above is Sydney, the horse I rode today! Sydney is a mare, and a Quarter horse! There is a horse trail park about 20 minutes from where we live called Old Welcome Trails. I learned that it is an management property that the county owns! The early rise on a Saturday morning was a little rough, but totally worth it!
This is Dieago who is the Gelding horse that Ms. Robin rides! Diego is half Arabian half Saddle bread! 
The day ended with hay for the horses, and beer for the humans! I had a blast and can't wait to go again! Stay tuned for more horse tales! Happy riding!
We rode for close to 4 hours, and at least 5 miles! It was a perfect day weather wise, not too cool or hot! We even got an afternoon shower back at the barn! One day I would like to own a horse of my own, but for now I'm glad I have friends that teach can teach me the in's and out's of horse ownership!
About 2 miles out we ran into some horse friends! You should recognize them from the many Budweiser commercials they have been in, the world famous Clydesdales horses! They are so beautiful! I want! Santa take note!
