Bareback Ride After the 4th


We were so busy over the 4th of July weekend that we did not have a chance to go on a trail ride. The machine shop where I work had a picnic on Thursday afternoon, then Thursday evening we got invited to a really cool party. The hosts were our farily new acquaintances that we met through our entertainer friend. Anyway, long story short, they have this really neat house in a beach community in the Dunes. We had a great time. On Friday we had a cookout with John's mother and her friend, then on Saturday morning we left to go to Lafayette to visit John's brother and his wife. Our best friends, who live near Indianapolis, came up to visit, too. Even though it POURED rain and was kind of cold, we had so much fun.....we laughed a lot and just had a great time.


We got home on Sunday late afternoon, and were just worn out and had to get ready for work the next day. So we only had time for a short bareback ride in the pasture area. Then we took The Girls out into the yard to spoil them a bit with fresh grass. It was just nice spending time with them. Hopefully this weekend we can take a nice, long trail ride!!


Overall, it was a great holiday weekend!

I know the feeling of being busy! I was extremely busy last weekend too. Didn't get any riding in either.
Hope you get to go on a trail ride real soon!
