Our Ride

Nothing like planning a ride on a rainy day for the next - then getting up to blazing sunshine! It was one of those perfect mornings - so perfect that you remember the Why of living in the Great Northwet!

Khari & I arrived a little early, it gives us time to kick-back & enjoy the sunshine. I finished my mug of tea, Khari finished her morning nap :-) Once our friends arrived, we hit the trails & did a nice pace for 8 miles. Then - after all that "work" we had time for lunch!

Plenty of parking!

Albert Borgmann, Crossing the Postmodern Divide, 1992

You cannot remain unmoved by the gentleness and conformation of a well-bred and well-trained horse -- more than a thousand pounds of big-boned, well-muscled animal, slick of coat & sweet of smell, obedient and mannerly, and yet forever a menace with it's innocent power and ineradicable inclination to seek refuge in flight, and always a burden with its need to be fed, wormed, and shod, with its liability to cuts and infections, to laming and heaves. But when it greets you with a nicker, nuzzles your chest, and regards you with a large and liquid eye, the question of where you want to be and what you want to do had been answered.
