Hey Babe!
What a perfectly beautiful day! Mid 70’s, gorgeous! Did some computer work in the morning, spend a long time on the phone trying to line up someone to work on my brakes. The guy that was supposed to come, his wife was in a car accident so he’s been totally out of it, so I proceeded to try to find someone else, must have made a dozen calls, finally found a tire place that has road service, is used to working on big vehicles (including semis) and a five star rating that could come tomorrow. So relieved about that! Once I got that settled, I saddled up Flash and we went off and running, literally. After the first mile, he just wanted to move out, so, naturally, I let him! We went west out to Allard, a nice section with some beautiful, though unkempt, trails. A hidden gem that could certainly use some TLC!! A lot of the trails are hard to follow, but it’s not a huge area, so it’s not too hard to find your way around. I actually ended up following one trail all the way up to the Suwannee River, didn’t realize I could even do that! Flash was a dream today, and Lola certainly enjoyed herself, too. It was a great conditioning ride, too, he was cantering and gaiting through the woods for miles, and didn’t seem to mind at all. Gave him a nice rinse off when we got back, then I helped Linda air up her tires, she’s leaving tomorrow after having been here for six months! Of course, Flash promptly rolled, no surprise there, but it will fall off. Since it’s only going down to the mid-50’s tonight, I didn’t put blankets on, hope they’ll be okay, especially Apollo since his summer coat has barely come in. Settled down for the evening, my usual routine of a movie, Sleepytime tea, shower and bed! Fingers crossed my brake problem is resolved tomorrow! Good night, sweetie! Love you!
