3's Company

All ready to go for a ride
Another little trail ride today. And another gorgeous day for it. Went out to the ranch. Pulled Cody out of the herd to groom first. He was a little annoyed and didn't want me to take him away. The rest of the horses were right in the front pasture so he was pretty calm about it. Jacque came out as I was finishing up Cody so I groomed up Axel as well. I'm going to have to get some tips from Tricia on her skilled scratching techniques ;) Jacque found some cardboard and wire and we measured the boys withers so I have some models to use when I get around to finding some english saddles. They are some wide boys, that's for sure. Anne called and came out to ride with us as well. So Jacque got Corey ready and we were all set to go. Corey hadn't been ridden out of the round pen in probably 2 years so he was a little tough to get moving at first. Once we got going though he went pretty well. He was a little nervous and wound up but he kept it pretty much together. We took it slow and walked the whole trip, which was a little tough for Cody, he really likes to run up the hill on his way back to see his friends.
