July 31, 2008: Guess what we did today.....No, really, guess....Correct! We rode horses. There is always a lot to see. We took a ride into the high country as a family. A fair bit of trail breaking on the way down. The wrangler lost the trail in the open field up high. Quite frankly, it is impossible to get lost because the valley is so narrow and the sides so high. The trail was visible below us and we just wove our way down. The horse is in "self-preservation" mode on any rocky or hilly terrain so you just hold on and there is no worry about getting where you are going. There were several small children (including our own) on the trip without incident. It was a great ride and a welcome change from some of the 'nose to tail' riding we did before.
When we returned, dug into one of the beers I brought - it is BYOB at the ranch. Don't forget that! There are no stores nearby.
The rockies appear to be waves on the ocean in some of our photos. Very peaceful here.
