Riding is hard work

Luba and I have been too busy riding to do much blogging. Hooray for us!

After a bubble-wrap 55 at Cayuse Canter on the May long weekend, we have been preparing for the Vermont 100.

Next stop is a depletion 50 miler at the Stormont ride on June 29.   We went to pre-ride the Stormont trails on Sunday with Denise/Gem. Lovely kind of hack that we used to do every Monday morning.  Luba trailered over and back without any fuss and babysat Gem who was on his best behaviour. She likes him. No mare ears at all! Wish I had brought my phone. All I have to show for it is the GPS tracks and lots of great memories, like the picture in my mind's eye of Gem and Denise softly cantering down MacMillan road....

I headed to the farm for an early morning workout this morning.  Here is Luba all tacked up and ready to ride the driveway in her Renegades! Plus got some cool shadow shots.







Apparently, this was very hard work! Uwe sent me these great shots of Sera and Luba sleeping with MissT keeping watch. 

I love my horses 


These heads are heavy...

All work... no rest.... must stay awake...
