Pretty Day to Ride

After the strong cold front moved through on Wednesday the low that night was in the 60's. Thursday the temps stayed in the upper 70's with a light breeze. It was wonderful! I HAD to go ride! I saddle up Fancy and Diamond and headed to Lake Mineral Wells State Park.





I began the ride on Fancy.


















We didn't ride far when I saw what I think may have been a Kite Hawk. It's not a good picture. I only had my phone camera.



























I usually try to ride halfway before changing horses but as you can see Diamond was dragging his feet. I finally swapped horses.















Once I got on him he moved much faster. I think he just likes being in the lead!

















My favorite part of the trail is along the creek.

















Love how the sunlight shines through the trees.






















I actually met a couple riding on the trail. I usually don't see anyone. We visited a bit then continued on.






















































After we get back. Diamond takes a good roll!










It was a great day!



Have a good one!
