Spring Fever

YES! Warm weather and I’m itching to be back on the trails. Yesterday was the first day I got my horse out of the field and I didn’t have to fight the mud to do it. His hair is sheading out by the handful and I clipped his long goat hair under his chin. Sadly I’m not good with clippers and butchered him.

While I’m on the hunt for a new horse I’m boarding in the heart of the Genesee Valley Hunt country. There’s nothing but trails outside the barn door. I took off on the old RR bed going north and was surprised on how dry the trails are. Of course they weren’t dry enough to save my tack. A few puddle splashings and treks through clay mud got both myself and my tack covered. Time for me to switch to my synthetic saddle for easy cleaning.

If the weather holds up my next trek will be to the Leighigh Valley Trail system. I’ll be sure to bring a camera and show you the trail! If you want to join me check out the Trail Buddy page for my contact info.
