Long view

Today's ride was down a road across the valley- we had great views of the whole valley. The first part of the ride we went along the base of the mountain just to see where the road went- it ended at some private property right on the US border.



That power line is pretty much on the border. We turned around, not wanting to go past the posted no trespassing signs.
There were a couple of places where there were livestock guardian dogs who came to check us out- Shayla pulled Goose, her little border collie, up into the saddle with her, just in case the dogs took after her.


It sure was another beautiful spring day!


Next we went down a long straight road that was perfect for doing some long trotting. Shayla was riding Rose, her Quarab mare who has a lovely long trot. Gussie had to work at it to keep up as she kept wanting to break into a lope but I managed to find the right gear for her to stay in a trot- and what fun it was! She could really motor!


Shayla did a good job on the video as her horse was moving out pretty good too! I had to grab my hat it kept wanting to fly off.


Quite the 360 degree view. I'd like to ride down there again and take Tay with me, it would be a good place for her to really get some exercise.
