Hiya Sweetie!
Had a great night sleep, probably because I had to put earplugs in because of the rain. It's usually very quiet out here this early in the week, but the remnants of a tropical storm came in late and it rained nonstop all night, and was still raining this morning. I kept watching the weather and the radar, and they said it would quit about 11:30, but it was still drizzing at 12:30 when I started to saddle up. I couldn't wait any longer or I would run out of time. Our task today was the 12.5 mile Medium Blue trail, which I'm happy to say was impeccably marked. I only had one issue with some holes by the little bridge near the north end of the field, which I let the trailmaster know about. Flash was very slow today, I think the slippery footing was bothering him, and it never did quit raining, though it was just a fine mist for most of the day. I layered up and topped it off with my whitewater rain suit, but was still getting a bit chilled by the end of the day when we got home at 5:00. I put his rain sheet in the dryer because it had gotten soaked through during the night, and gave him plenty of feed and hay. I was glad this morning that I had put his blanket on last night, he was shivering when I was saddling him up this morning. Settled down to a late evening, but managed to get in a fun movie with Paul Hogan. Looking forward to a drier day tomorrow, fingers crossed! Good night, baby! Love you!
