October Skies

Fall is my favorite time of year.

Until Spring rolls around.

And then I'm all over Spring.

But it's fall, and I'm excited about it.

Well...

It was fall last Monday.

Today it's full-blown July again.

150% humidity and HOT.

But last night was pretty nice.

Humid.

Hot.

But a nice breeze.

So Kyle and I saddled up after work and headed to the woods.

It was WET!

We've had quite a bit of rain lately.

There is a spot on our favorite trail we call "Pig World".

(There used to be wild pigs that lived there...  They are gone now...)

There's a dip in the trail and it gets pretty wet.

Kyle was sure it wasn't going to be very deep.

I ride this trail a LOT.

So I sat back and just watched.

He finally had to lift his feet up.

The water was lapping his toes!

His horse LOVES water.

You need to be aware or Buddy will "go for a roll/swim".

But they managed to cross without mishap.

When we got home, the 7:00 rain shower clouds rolled in.

But before it rained, we got a pretty sunset.

 Kyle climbed up on the shade cloth roof to enjoy it for a little bit.

(And he likes to sit up there and then make boogey man noises as the horses leave the barn...

He is easily amused.)
