Markus' First Trail Ride

Today, Lianne/Summer, Markus/Ginger and I/Willow went on our first trail ride together. We went out Leland's road and actually went out twice - first without fly spray and then again with fly spray! Ginger and Markus made a great team, Markus can pull Ginger off the grass and get her going again with no trouble, he can sit her trot nicely, and he can bring her down well. It was a great ride for us all! Willow was a bit of a handful at times, but Lianne and Markus were very patient - I could hear them happily chatting away behind me - so I could concentrate on Willow. We're going to do lots of riding this Summer and can't wait for Marie and Mister to join us!
