A beautiful horseback ride

I try to get out and do it a few times a year... this was one

of those exceptional days. The video is a little shaky since

it's from horseback, but it's short so you won't get too queasy.

The river was roaring like mad with spring run-off, unfortunately

there was too much wind to hear it:

And here is a video of an old abandoned movie set we rode by:

Beautiful! Thanks, Valerie. It looks smoother than some videos I've shot from my car.

How delightful Val.

I love horseback riding but haven't been on a horse in years...must try it again.

Beautiful country you have there.

Thank you !!!

He's not my horse, belongs to a friend. He is the one I most

often ride. Here is a thread with his pics:

The only little problem is he's very tall, 16.1 hands, and I pretty much

have to find a big rock to stand on to mount!

I was hoping that the smell of beer would drive them away.
