Thanks Marvel! I am looking forward to it!
DeleteWhere is Pleasant Dale? Close to Turkey Creek? One of our plan to ride with year maybe twice.
DeletePleasant Dale - just east of Milford - off Van Dorn and 182nd.
DeleteWendy - so glad you are riding with us this year. Maybe you can join us on one of our Wednesday rides.
ReplyDeleteJuanita - Pleasant Dale is just west of Lincoln.
Me too! Hope to make it. Off to Cincinnati this week, so won't get much in until next weekend.
DeleteGave it a try today - way too muddy to do much though. Maybe it will dry up later.

Hey, miles are miles! Glad you are on the leaderboard!!!!
DeleteThanks! Looking forward to getting back into town Friday night (on the road on business this week) so I can get more miles in.
DeleteRode Dakota - very very windy today. Clouds moved in and the wind picked up as we called it a day.

Bitter sweet ride today in memory of my grandmother.. My grandmother passed away this morning and she was my inspiration for my love of the country. The rest of my family, immediate and extended, are all "city" people. She and my grandfather loved the country, the animals, the tranquility. Had to keep the ride shot so I can join my family in town to handle things.

How very fitting and awesome that you honored your grandmother's memory with a horseback ride today. I'll bet she would be very proud of you! This will be part of your great memories of her. Marvel
DeleteThanks Marvel!
DeleteCame home and got in a second ride on Dakota, with Quin on Cassie.

Had to put a good cap on an otherwise tough weekend.
My condolences to you and your family. What a blessing you must have been to your grandparents. A ride to honor your grandmother. She would be so happy :-)

Short ride on Dakota today after spending the morning at the Dog Expo. Turned out to be nice outside and with the snow just beautiful!

Little muddy today, so had to be cautious of where to ride.

Took Dakota out for what I thought would be a longer ride, but a call from the hubby (which scared Dakota to death) letting me know we were due for lunch with his folks cut it short. Very windy on the roads today, although quite pleasant out when not in the wind.
ReplyDeleteHave to figure out why our collie insists on throwing a fit when I go out to ride. He barks the entire time I am outside regardless of if he is inside or out.

Dakota was quite a handful tonight. Spent the night doing basics with him since he seems to have forgotten that the end game was to ride forward not sideways.
2.45 miles on Dakota today, and a lot of time with Winter (5 years), the neighbor's granddaughter. She put in another bit on him as well, and Cassie got a good ride in with Quin. Beautiful day, and always fun to watch this her ride also.
ReplyDeletePut time in on Cassie today. Winter (the neighbor's granddaughter) was over again too and she got some time in on Ezra - the shetland we are training.
ReplyDelete2.23 miles 62 minutes. Wasn't sure if the weather would hold out, and did get sprinkled on a bit, but turned out beautiful!
Excellent weekend with Natalie home. Nice ride on Dakota yesterday for 1.8 miles. Not long, but was nice!
ReplyDeleteWeather is finally dry, and trying to get some miles in both for the horses and for my sanity.
ReplyDeleteNatalie is back off to Arkansas, and I put a couple miles on today.
2.37 in 29 minutes. Was a nice ride, not long, but nice.
Short ride in tonight, 1.40 miles in 19.02 minutes. With the wind Dakota was a bit spooky, but had a nice time!
ReplyDeleteFinally! Got a ride in tonight and remembered to track it!
ReplyDelete2.2 miles in 30 minutes. Wanted to keep going but fresh trimmed hooves on gravel was creating some tender feet so we kept it short.
Friday 1.4 miles in 18 minutes, short but fun!
ReplyDeleteSaturday 1.4 miles (really need to mix it up a bit, but too muddy to do much) 19.2 minutes
Sunday - well, hopefully yet later tonight..Salt dogs game and the day with family today, so didn't get a ride in.
1.84 miles in 24 minutes on Dakota today in some very wet conditions. Rode around our hay pasture mostly, just checking to see what kind of crop we are going to get. So much better than last year from the looks of it!
ReplyDeleteWas a nice sunny afternoon.
I noticed everyone else is putting their "total miles" and I hadn't been. Nothing new to add today, but my total for the season is 33 miles.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunny afternoon for a ride today!! And a great way to put in a few miles now that it is dry enough. 3.2 miles in 1 hour 5 minutes, would have been faster but the county decided to dig new ditches with all the rain, and left the mud clods all on the road. Narrow road, Dakota not wanting to really be near the big scary clods, and a truck with a loaded trailer...made for a bit of a slow down and some dancing around.
ReplyDeleteBut all in all a good ride. 35.2 miles total for the year.
2.74 miles on Saturday in 46 minutes and 1.34 miles on Sunday in 22 minutes. Humid, lots of flies biting, and had a very large and scary tractor coming to eat us, but all in all a great weekend! Total year to date 39.28.
ReplyDeleteWant to get more riding in! Maybe after we get the hay put up (weather pending this week)
Finally a good riding weekend!
ReplyDeleteToday we got in 3.52 miles in 46.57 minutes
Saturday was 4.19 miles in 1 hour 15 minutes (slow going due to lots of "new" sights on the road since the tree trimmers had been through topping trees on the road under the power lines. They left behind some pretty mutilated trees, open spots, and big piles of mulch so Dakota had to check out the new sights.
Total: 46.99 miles.
Have gotten in a few other rides, but neglected to GPS track them. Need to get better at that!
I didn't get a ride in today, but both Dakota and Cassie spent close to 3 hours with my relatives riding them around. Was just too hot to ask them to take me out after :-) Was a great day!
ReplyDeleteAugh! Forgot to record some rides, and with the heat and all our company my horses are getting the miles in but I'm not as much.
ReplyDeleteJust got in a short ride for 2.7 miles in 43 minutes on Dakota. Both Dakota and Cassie have been hard at work with my brother's friends kids, my niece and her boyfriend, my uncles grandchildren..the list goes on. All in all still getting them exercise, just need to increase mine :-)
And yet another weekend out of town, but got home in time to get my standard in. 2.7 miles in 45 minutes on Sunday.
