Back in the Saddle!

I made a friend on Facebook recently that was willing to let me come out and ride her horses.  A girl I work with also rides, and I am always looking for horsey friends, so it made sense to invite her.  She also has a car and that made getting to the barn a lot easier because there's no bus to there.

We went out today and had an amazing time.  We were both a little nervous after having been out of the saddle for a few months and we were afraid that we'd look awful.  I lack so much confidence in my riding ability right now, but I'm sure a few more rides like this and I'll be back into the swing of things.  We're going to try to go out to the barn once a week if our off days remain together.

Then maybe after I move closer to downtown Seattle, we'll be able to drive out together easier.

We had such a good day.  I'm going to start doing my equestrian work outs again during my off-time so I can get my strength, stamina, and muscles back up to par.  I'm so excited.

If only everyone was as generous as the people that I've been meeting lately.  The world would be a much better place.

Roo and me!
