frosty ride

this morning, being as how i was there and the others were too, i went out for a ride with paul & julie; it was FREEZING and mist was forming on the river, but it was sunny. A long walk - along to the ford, through to the field, up holme hill (the rest of the world think blast up there, i don't believe in always blasting in the same place! and anyway we only wanted a walk) back round, across the road, along, back across, down the track back to the ford and home. Molly didn't put a foot wrong.

I really wished I'd had the camera though. it was gorgeous.

then had to go back at lunchtime (vet came to do booster jab, shoudl have been done last friday) so all in all i went to the yard 3 times.

if i get up in the morning i'll go out again with julie & kirsty...

Sounds beautiful...especially the part about how Molly didn't put a foot wrong Way to go!

Sometimes progress seems so slow. Then one day you realize how far you have come. Perhaps the morning ride was one of those days.

Some wise horseman have suggested that the best horses are "made in the field, not the arena." Perhaps you will find the key to Molly's heart out there in the morning mist.
