Slept late this morning, and after a late breakfast we saddled and booted up the horses and headed north out a dirt road behind the RV Park. It had some areas that were very rocky, and others that were sandy like a beach. We passed a number of junk piles, riding out until we reached a small rise that, once we were on top, could see it led directly into town, accounting for the reason why it had become the town’s unofficial landfill, and we turned around, looping around a ridge to the east before coming back to the RV park about 90 minutes later, just enough to give the horses some exercise without making them work too hard. They had worked up a sweat in the heat (this is the first time I’ve been able to ride in a sleeveless shirt in ages!), so we got out a hose and rinsed them down. That lasted about 5 minutes, when Hubby’s mare flopped down and did a half roll in the dirt, making her a muddy mess on one side. Well, at least she was cooler! Had another nice evening at Happy Hour, though the cigarette smoke was starting to bother me today, it seemed most of the group was smoking today, and not enough breeze to send it away. Got back as the sun set and relaxed for the rest of the night.
