If you fall off the Horse...

Well today I got the chance to go on a guided tour/ride with Ricochet Ridge Ranch here in Fort Bragg/Cleon. I was sposed to have about 5 other co-workers with me but no one showed up...  :(
Before I even got on my horse I watched a video on safety. Then  Vida, one of my guides loaded up the horses and we were off to another one of their properties (Simca). We rode our horses around a little train that came back up to where we started to warm them up. Along this trail we had to go up a narrow pathed hill and on our way up my shoe got caught on a fence that we had to pass through and I fell off. All was fine.. no Scratches or Bruises... just some badly torn pants...( My Butt hung out) lol. I got Back on my Horse and we went off again...

The views were AMAIZING!  Went down and then up again.. had a small jumping lesson lol and up some more..



let the horses grab a bite to eat and rest then headed down.. My horses name was "Cloud". She was so careful going down the hills and very mindful of me. She is a Beauty!



 Vida and Stephy got the horses loaded up again and then we headed back to the stables to head out to the Beach... I had a GREAT time... A Little sore yes but that is just because my muscles are not used to sitting in a saddle for 4 hours.. I loved every Minute of it!! Here are some more pics from the Beach!
