And the wind gave chase...


Little did it know that it gave breath to an arabian.

My girl was awesome today. We switched it up a bit, six miles out, six miles back. A break, then six miles out, and six miles back. A few minor sidestepping spooks, but otherwise she was ALL BUSINESS. Ears pricked forward and motoring right along. We completed 24 miles, and I had PLENTY of horse left when all was said and done. She drank from her water bottle about four times today, and drank long at the 18 mile point, and again at the finish. Right now she is in the barn chomping down some groceries. She gets tomorrow off, then Monday or Tuesday we will do some serious hill work. Lots of hills coming at us in two weeks. ~E.G.
