The air pregnant with a rain feeling, 65 degrees with a slight breeze.
For Oregon, the humidity foreign, breezes make it bearable. Thunder storms have riddled our area.
Dressed in short sleeves, it is comfortable. The mare in her usual attire, we both get soaked! Wet drops from all surrounding greenery were cold at first, but then welcome, as the drenching droplets land upon ears, legs, shoulders and face.
Happy that I chose this trail to take out to start with; as we had time to dry on the more open lands of the ride, later.
Fresh was the air, but these trails showed signs of heavy usage since the last time we rode. A herd of folks must have come upon this area, in the last 2 days. That was confirmed to me, once I returned from this slippery ride.
Trailers in the masses, had been seen in a parking area nearby.
Somewhere else we shall choose to ride, till this moist trend ceases for a few weeks, giving the local trails time to mend and dry.

Pantz was welcomed back to "Two's A Team" facility recently. The move was good and she seemed to remember the place.
Now, maybe we can settle her into a nice routine for a few years...this moving every year ( last 3) because owners selling and quitting- is for the birds!
Enjoying a romp and roll in the recently upgraded round pen, she always takes such long looks about!
L*O*V*E is - this smartly done area.
The coarse sand is 3-5 inches deep, very easy to walk/trot in and "corralled" by a nice boards, making it last without waste.
Once the move day was over and Pantz got rested,
my sissy and I took the Horses for a wonderful
"Independence Day ride".
After all the hard work and emotional stresses, the ride truly made the difference!
All ears
Refreshed again!
Tee he he!
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE Times to you and yours!!
