Something else, very unexpected, was in the woods yesterday.
We came out to a very soggy, misty and grey day for a ride.
That was not a hindrance for the mare and I...we have all weather GEAR to wear- and we did so !
Our friends had bagged for the weather and the timing of the ride for schedules..no problem. A day solo with the mare is always a good day for us...that is how we got to now each other so well. We set off and deal with come what may!
Well.........
I saw the hoof prints and the poo too...but when I saw them....I was surprised. Not half as surprised as my mare though!
One loose cow was at the top of the driveway to this delicious hideaway home I adore to look upon. As we rounded the corner in this half block, dead end road from trails- to more trails....there were more of them loose. They were kinda looking for their place here...but no...they all decided to come on out the drive- as I was passing!
We just whooped it up a bit, to get them on their way...
And as we got going more uphill...they slowed to a cows pace...and the mare and I then decided to drive them on...Whoop!! My mare lowered her head and pinned her ears! She would taken a chunk outa the last one if I had given her her head...I think she'd like to do something ( I would have never dreamt of) in an arena this summer!!!
Wa mare the cow pony, and me, signing off...laughing the whole way!
Have YOU has an unexpected bit of fun land upon your path of late???
Do tell!
