Trail Training Newsletter – 98
March 2009
Dear Readers,
February has been a horrible month for us for trail riding. I don’t think that I was out on the trail a single time. The river is thawed out, but that hasn’t made any difference. Some days, the hill was icy. Other days, the driveway was icy. The few times I could have made it out were workdays, and it is still too dark in the evenings after work. Kevin got across the river a few times this month, but that’s because he is retired and was able to take advantage of the good days. March is sure to be better. I know the horses will be all excitable and silly. They always are when they haven’t been out enough.
We have been working hard in the arena, but we are losing interest in it. Mingo has become reluctant. Cruiser, who hasn’t seen the trail since the end of December, has some very good days and some days that he is seriously spooking. I think they both need to get out. Ranger just keeps getting better, but Ellen is getting restless. Spring, where are you!March 2009
