Dave & Meredith's Travel Blog

We met our horses today and took them for a test drive for about an hour.  My horse is the only red head in the group, and although he is one of the bigger horses, he seems a little pokey, so I decided to name him Opie.  Other than the fact that he sometimes wanders in a different direction than I’d like him to go, he seems pretty comfortable.

Dave named his horse UPS because he is brown and carries him from place to place.

After our test drive, some of the local men and boys held a race and played some games on horse back.  It turns out that my horse isn’t so pokey when the rider knows what he is doing – Opie won the race!

Here are some pics:
