This is just one section of the Amphitheater Trail, where the "castle" stone walls hold one back from tumbling off of the cliff.
As you can see, we rode in and out of rain and mist, typical of every day there.I had a blast, and Ah-D was wonderful. My friends with the fancy (expensive and talented) event TB's really liked him, and he was even able to keep up with their trots. THAT was fun! I think it says a lot about my little 14.2 hand Curly that he can keep up with a 16.2 top-notch event horse at a fast trot! Ok, ok...not their extended trot...he gave up at that point and cantered. Geez, was that a blast. I kept thinking of Liz and her Traveller.

Dian, you would not believe the incredible driving turnouts that are at the stables...marathon carts, lots of Meadowbrooks, incredible harnesses with tons of silver. Gorgeous. In my pre-Curly days, I did drive up there. I had an elegant but tough 15h Standardbred that could trot for miles.
ReplyDeleteJessica and Liz, you would love it up there!
