@Gpcoguy Is this a state park or something? How often do you see other people on those trails? Just curious as I would love to live somewhere that had less frequented trails. Gorgeous scenery. Though I would probably bring a firearm that looks like cougar territory.
 
Busy weekend! Ran FCAT on Saturday morning!

Rubie is at 244 cumulative points and Moo is at 117. Moo will get his BCAT (150 points) at the September FCAT we're signed up for! Rubie is halfway to DCAT (500 points). 1 point for every MPH.

Swung by a friend's sons championship baseball game on our way home (they lost, or, came in second)! Moo came with to watch but Rubie hung out in the car with water, AC, and tunes. Too many little kids running around.

Took the puppies to the Morton Arboretum this morning for hiking! The temp wasn't too bad but the dew point was like 65 so it felt HOT.

The newest installation is cool but we liked the Trolls better

We snuck over to our "secret place" to let the pups get their feet wet and cool down

The progress on the Donut Shop is slow but steady!

I waited 25 years to finally fulfill my horse ownership dream. I was just telling my daughter how jealous I am of her. She's been riding since she was 3 and her brother just started his own lessons. I had to wait till I was a teenager. I'm thrilled we can do this for them.

I follow a couple of OTTB groups and they are just wonderful horses!

We're still getting to know her. We've only had her since March. But so far she's been wonderful. Very tolerant of my learning and very gentle with the kids. That's good because she also has a lot to learn.

Off-track Thoroughbred. She raced 21 times from 2010-2015.

I have always loved horse, although I was very specific in my love-- the Arabian horse. Riding lessons and having a horse was always considered impossible for me, but I got both. Not the best rider, and I have probably lost a lot. I had my horse for about 10 months. I rehomed him to a farm just before everything shut down due to Covid. I decided that learning Portuguese would be my priority and I needed more time...plus, I needed to save my money for the future (and I was spending a huge amount of time and money on him). I had the chance to improve him in a few areas. He was very sensitive about both his feet and ears. By the time he left, he was much calmer about his ears, and easy to work with his feet as long as you didn't take too long.

Flash-- half Thoroughbred;)

Oh what a beauty! I do love those gorgeous Arabian dish faces.
 
Took a long weekend to do a working dog seminar - that'll be another story. Here's Asha on Saturday morning before it started. This place called Overlook Park is just 3 minutes from the working field, so I took her there before each morning for her sniff walk. Boy do I ever love northern NM!

I love how dark and rich Asha's coloring is. She is a beautiful doberman
