On 16th May a group of ten youngsters (between 49 and 66 years old!) from our village travelled to the US for an activity holiday based around Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. The main activity of the holiday was a 2 day mule ride up and down the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. This is the view between the ears of my mule Tici at the start of the journey down to the bottom of the Canyon

Have been thinking for a while that it might be nice to try a western saddle. I was talking to someone the other day who rides western and they described it as really good fun. So I took the plunge and ordered a couple of western saddles to try out with my guys.

Horses have trotted along our roads longer than cars but ignorant drivers actually speed up or beep when they spot horse riders using the road. Whilst in our area the biggest majority of motorists are considerate there are one or two who are going to be responsible for killing someone. When this happens will they be charged with 'manslaughter' or will it just be considered another accident?

Practising side pass and lifting feet without contact with Polly on the ground. She moves the front ok but tends to drag her back end. Need to work on that a bit more. Polly loves to conserve energy!! She backs by the tail very nicely. Handy if you need them to reverse out of a trailer.
