| Lower Wetland~ |
Monday, Joyce & I met at the Morgan Horse Club to ride. Joyce wanted to check out some of the lower trails - where we'd seen the beginning of changes a couple months ago when we were last here.
The richness of the newly opened green leaves - were almost an assault to my senses, after the barren landscape of last weeks trip! Soon, though - that changed!

| Tiny guard dog~ |
As we came off the trail & out onto the logging roads, this area had been cleared & a track hoe was still on the top of the hill. The small dog came barking our way - guarding the truck :-)

Further on, we were following another old trail - but found it blocked. Joyce walked in to see just how bad it was & it was bad enough that we didn't go on.

| Stump farm |
Back out on the roads, they're now covered in another full layer of heavy gravel, so any riding in this area will have to be slow - if at all - if you're here on a day the trucks are rolling... We were surprised that they weren't!

| On our way up~ |
We headed on up to the higher loop & had a Wonderful run up the running hill - which Farah now recognizes the minute we make the turn!
The day was cooling down, clouds rolling in as we came off the top. Even with the wind, I managed this photo of the beautiful bleeding hearts! I've tried so many times to get them started in our woods without success. They really like the clear-cuts & organic matter. We finished off our ride at almost 15 miles at a really decent pace too - since we'd made a few stops. Another great ride~
