Detroit Liberty

We got our horses today! We left out on County Road and had a handful of canter stretches.

Liberty is a box horse which means she can't be tied to a post without either untying them self or getting spooked. She's a great horse for Sam.


My horse is Detroit. He's fast, independent, and a challenge. We took off today on an independent canter and At least twice I felt as though I was about to fall off. Once he stopped with a quick turn.


Can't wait til tomorrow!

We're Back

It's our third year back at Circle R Ranch in Long Prairie. We're so excited to be back. I may be more than Sam to be honest.


Sam wanted to keep Amie from last year but we convinced her to try someone new. Liberty was recommended by a few counselors and it took a while to get her to agree.


I loved Huey. He was great last year. This year I got Detroit. He's supposed to be fast, independent, and a good challenge. We'll see.


It's great to be back though.

Rock Lake

Seth and I took off for the weekend to have some us time. We fished a bit without any luck. 

Played some cribbage and 31. I whooped his butt but let him win the last game. We went into Brainerd and played mini golf and go-karts. 

Now we sit on the tailgate of the F150 and reminisce of all our family vacations. Seth liked camping on Hinsdale Island on Lake Vermillion the best. I'd have to agree. It was pretty peaceful.

This weekend has been fun. We're getting some much needed time together.

Oh, last night we were heading into town about 8:30pm to get some dinner and a wolf darted across the road just outside of our campgrounds. Pretty cool. Still not my moose.
