It was such a beautiful evening tonight, and Kathleen and I thought we would head to the barn. Caddy had lost a shoe last week, and so Kathleen wasn't able to do much with her, but today Leon came and got her all fixed up so we thought we would go and take advantage of this beautiful night.
We were surprised to find the barn quiet on a Friday evening, not even Dozer was around. Kathleen got Caddy out and worked inside with her for a bit-usually after having a few days off Caddy has a bit of attitude when she is expected to do something again-but not tonight! She was just wonderful with Kathleen.
After some ground work inside, Kathleen decided to take her for some runs up and down the driveway. They looked just great together. Things were going so well, that Kathleen decided to go around the property-and off they went on this beautiful night, just a girl and her horse-surrounded by the silence and beauty of the night. It did my heart good to sit in the peacefullness of the evening and watch them go off together-alone.
We like to ride everywhere from a nice trail walk along the beach to training and competing in a 50 mile endurance ride.
