Mon 2nd
We’ve had days of on/off drizzle, heavy rain and winds again so the horses have had some time off 😉 Today though, we have mild temps, wee breeze and dry weather SO I went and fed them this morning and cleaned the field. I then tacked them both up and took them out of the field. I walked them a quarter of the way back to the house (up the big hill and to the first gateway) where then I mounted Stormy and lead Bella all the way home.
Every opportunity to snatch at some delicious grazing, there are some fab cow parsley plants about at the moment.
Riding Stormy and leading Bella…both did a fab job sticking together and keeping the same gait.
Stormy loves a wee canter at this hillock in front of the house….managed to keep Bella up with him in trot 😉
I put them into the home paddock for an hours rest/grazing where they did actually rest for quite a bit of it. Then Mark and I tacked them back up and we rode them back to the big field together 😉
Love ride, not too long as we were both tired from some home decorating and doing odd jobs this time of year but just great to get out together for a wee ride on the big monsters 😉
Bella had a bit of trot energy once back in the big field so we did some nice trot circles 😉 Nice end to a nice rie 😉
