Hiya Babe!
Started off the day in my usual manner, then after breakfast, a friend of Sheila’s stopped by and we chatted about the Shore-to-Shore ride, which she’s done several times. Then Alayna’s grandma walked up and I chatted with her for quite a while, first at my site, then at hers. Finally, I came back to check on Lola and to saddle up Flash, thinking Alayna would be back at 1:00, but it was closer to 2:00 when she got there. I kept Grandma Cooley company until then, but then headed out on the trail. I had about a 15 mile ride planned, and missed a couple of trail markers, so by the time we got back to camp it was 17.24 miles! We did a lot of gaiting today, so we did it in pretty good time, almost exactly four hours, which I thought was pretty good. Not endurance ride-winning, but great for a conditioning ride. Lola came with us today, and she had to work hard to keep up with us! Out like a light as soon as we got home, not surprisingly. After a conversation with Alayna, we decided Apollo should go with her when she leaves tomorrow, so that will be one less thing I have to plan around later in the week. It’s all about getting everything fixed for the big ride now. Going to tackle as many of the problems as I can tomorrow, though my tire isn’t due in until Tuesday, but I can try to work on my jacks and brakes tomorrow. Feeling pretty tired right now, didn’t get the best night sleep last night, and it’s been a long, exhausting day, so I’m off to bed early, hopefully! Good night, sweetie! Love you!
