Practice makes perfect - - Me and Perla are getting there - get up on the "table and stay there until I say get off -- the problem, Perla says in her own way "I will get off when i am damb well ready!"

Practice makes perfect – – Me and Perla are getting better – I say “Get up on the table and stay there until I say get off” — And that she does.  The problem, Perla says in her own way “I will get off when I am damb well ready!” I have waited for what seemed like an hour – then she gets off!

In my pasture - we are getting ready for the trail ride. You know I used to go hunting with friends and more then once we traveled miles to the good hunting spot and the realized we left our guns back a camp -- and my mind was young then!!!  Today we forgot our bridles but it was because our minds are old!! We train well -- halters will do -- and they did!  What do you think of that?

In my pasture – we are getting ready for the trail ride. You know I used to go hunting with friends and more then once we traveled miles to the good hunting spot and then realized we left our guns back at camp — and my mind was young then!!! Today we forgot our bridles at the other barn, but it was because our minds are old!!   We train well — bridles are not required – halters will do — and they did!   What do you think of that?

While trying to decide what to do with no bridles I decided to be a photographer and capture me and Perla as a shadow - a shadow. Our ex-president said "I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse." Ronald Reagan -- That was a little deep, but Daniel Boone made straight talk  " All you need for happiness is a good gun, a good horse, and a good wife."

But we rode through the woods passed our whitney Bay to lake Huron  - Here we are!

But we rode through the woods, passed our whitney Bay, on to lake Huron – Here we are!

I know we are are there because I see a bright red freighter heading for the Soo Locks!

With my super tele-photo lens, I know we are are there, because, I see a bright red freighter off in the distance  heading for the Soo Locks and on to Lake Superior.

I learn on every trail ride - Am I the Donkey or is Perla - today we cam to a little run-off in the road - no more then 6"" across  and no more then 3" deep -- Perla just wadded through a puddle that was a foot deep and 15 feet across - no problem -- but the run-off caused her to go bonkers - jumped like a rodeo bronco - I held on and then all was well on the other side????????? She is a real donkey say I.

I learn much on every trail ride – Am I the Donkey or is Perla the donkey? – today we came to a little run-off in the trail – no more then 6″” across and no more then 3″ deep — Perla had just wadded through a puddle that was a foot deep and 15 feet across – no problem — but the run-off caused her to go bonkers – ballistic is more like it … jumped like a rodeo bronco – I held on and then all was well on the other side????????? She is a real donkey say I.  Bye for now.
