Out West Wanderings II

Today was a day of all sun and 70 degrees. Just perfect. We rode to the Sheep Tank.

Yesterday I had tried to get there but turned too soon. This time I knew we had to go further. It was easy to find. Once we got there the horses enjoyed the water. This was one of the prettier trails that we had ridden. Pearl was so relaxed and seemed to enjoy the time out.
We rode near to nine miles and it took about three hours .

When we got back, I gave Blaze a bath. A new friend, Vicky was just giving her horse Silver one and lent me her hose. She also let me use a tool to help get the loose hairs off that he Blaze was shedding. It looks like a hacksaw blade in a wooden handle. SleekEZ is a wonderful tool and I got online and ordered one for myself. It will be at home when we return, and I can use it on all the horses.

Vicky’s husband, Jeff, has an electric bicycle that he has been using on the smoother trails. Today he saw a huge rattlesnake on the 50 Year trail that we ride on. We had been told that once

there were three days in a row of 80-degree weather, the snakes would be out. Well, we haven't had even one 80-degree day!

I sure hope we don’t see one while we are riding. This one was HUGE.
Tomorrow is laundry and shopping, so we may not get out to ride.
