Hike and Ride

[quest]

So today i went for a run/hike out in a Natural area about ten minutes from my house. I went up to some ponds called the East and West Ponds and took some photos. I was kind of suprised at how much water is still in them. I also saw two badgers on my hike :)Afterwards I went straight to the barn and took Twilight out on a trail ride up to the pond. She was so wonderful, we even cantered a little bit on the way up! Anyways, hope you enjoy the pictures!
First heres a few of my hike:

I know there was a ton of them, but I hope you enjoy them! I enjoyed them! I love this one... she just has such a kind eye - it would be terribly hard to part with her.

that last one is my fav pic too. do you mind me asking why your getting rid of her? just curious?

[quest]

Pretty much just financial reasons. I spend a lot of money boarding out since we don't own property, and I barely ever have anyone out to ride with me who doesnt have a horse, I also just don't feel like I have enough time to spend enough with both of them.

[PatriotsDreamer]

Trust me, i understand. im lucky to have it so nice where i keep my babies. even though i take care of them every day.

Great pictures!!! very pretty area!!

Am I just not see this right or is it the light, but there is a chin strap on a D-ring snaffle???
Just curious why???:)

[quest]

Yeah, there is a leather strap! Forgot that was there actually and to be honest I really don't even remember why I put it there on the first place. :) But whatever reason it was there, I probably don't need it anymore lol
